Luau WebAssembly: Browser Playground + Python wasmtime
— Luau WebAssembly explores compiling the Luau scripting language (used by Roblox) to WebAssembly for interactive browser environments and Python integration via wasmtime. By leveraging Emscripten, the project creates a streamlined WASM module that runs in the browser (with a playground and Pyodide integration) and server-side Python. Key technical adaptations include custom output capture, flexible WASM imports for wasmtime, and Python wrappers that handle C++ exception lifecycles.
