    json.lua

    json.lua

    A lightweight JSON library for Lua

    json.lua is a lightweight JSON library for Lua that provides straightforward encoding and decoding without requiring a large external package. It is designed to be dropped into an existing project as a single Lua file, then required directly from application code. The library exposes a simple API for turning Lua values into JSON strings and parsing JSON strings back into Lua values. Its small size makes it practical for games, plugins, scripts, embedded Lua environments, and projects where dependency weight matters. It is implemented in pure Lua and is known for being fast among pure Lua JSON options while still offering useful error messages. Overall, it is a convenient choice when a Lua project needs dependable JSON support with minimal setup.

    Luacheck

    Luacheck

    A tool for linting and static analysis of Lua code

    Luacheck is a static analyzer and a linter for Lua. Luacheck detects various issues such as usage of undefined global variables, unused variables and values, accessing uninitialized variables, unreachable code and more. Most aspects of checking are configurable: there are options for defining custom project-related globals, for selecting set of standard globals (version of Lua standard library), for filtering warnings by type and name of related variable, etc. The options can be used on the command line, put into a config or directly into checked files as Lua comments. Luacheck supports checking Lua files using the syntax of Lua 5.1, Lua 5.2, Lua 5.3, and LuaJIT. Luacheck itself is written in Lua and runs on all of the mentioned Lua versions.

    MoonScript

    MoonScript

    A language that compiles to Lua

    MoonScript is a dynamic scripting language that compiles into Lua. It gives you the power of one of the fastest scripting languages combined with a rich set of features. MoonScript can either be compiled into Lua and run at a later time, or it can be dynamically compiled and run using the moonloader. It’s as simple as requiring "moonscript" in order to have Lua understand how to load and run any MoonScript file. Because it compiles right into Lua code, it is completely compatible with alternative Lua implementations like LuaJIT, and it is also compatible with all existing Lua code and libraries. The command line tools also let you run MoonScript directly from the command line, like any first-class scripting language.

    Crazy Eddies GUI System (CEGUI)

    Crazy Eddies GUI System (CEGUI)

    A fast, powerful and adaptable GUI solution

    Crazy Eddie's GUI (CEGUI) system is a graphical user interface C++ library. It was designed particularly for the needs of videogames, but the library is usable for non-game tasks, such as any other type of applications (rendering/visualisation/virtual reality) and tools. It is designed for user flexibility in look-and-feel, as well as being adaptable to the user's choice in tools and operating systems. Established in 2003, CEGUI sees continual, active development and remains one of the most powerful and most popular options for developers requiring an adaptable and efficient GUI solution. CEGUI is fully supported by the developers that created - and continue to develop - the library, and who are accessible via the project's dedicated internet forums and IRC channel. For more information, more screenshots and for news, check out out our homepage: http://cegui.org.uk The repository is now at bitbucket (including our issue/bug tracker): https://bitbucket.org/cegui

    Teal

    Teal

    The compiler for Teal, a typed dialect of Lua

    This is the repository of tl, the compiler for Teal, a typed dialect of Lua. The core compiler has no dependencies and is implemented as a single tl. lua file which you can load into your projects. Running tl. loader() will add Teal support to your package loader, meaning that require() will be able to run .tl files. Alternatively, you can find pre-compiled binaries for Linux x86_64 and Windows x86_64 at the releases page. The packages contain a stand-alone executable that can run Teal programs (without the need of a separate Lua installation) and also compile them to Lua.

    fast-neural-style

    fast-neural-style

    Feedforward style transfer

    The fast-neural-style project is an implementation of neural style transfer techniques optimized for real-time image processing. It uses convolutional neural networks to apply artistic styles to images, enabling users to transform photos into stylized outputs inspired by famous artworks. Unlike earlier approaches that required expensive optimization per image, this project leverages feed-forward networks to achieve fast inference, making style transfer practical for real-world applications. The repository includes training scripts, pre-trained models, and examples demonstrating how to apply styles efficiently. It also provides insights into the underlying techniques used in neural style transfer, making it both a practical tool and a learning resource. By combining performance and quality, it enables creative applications in image processing and design.
