User Reviews
Works well so far in Java project.
Luaj is a pleasure to use. I particularly appreciate Luaj still working on older JDKs because there's still some environments using older JDKs.
great library. handles all the lua code in en.wikipedia.org and other WMF wikis. is also much faster than the standard lua binary. documentation makes it easy to use and customize.
very easy to use and incredibly fast.
It's great, but it doesn't support newproxy()... (look up Lua hidden features) Read more reviews >
