I was reading on terralang site about terra language as
"a new low-level system programming language that is designed to interoperate seamlessly with the Lua programming language..."
Zach DeVito (the main author) write about the use of terra :
A scripting-language with high-performance extensions.....
An embedded JIT-compiler for building languages.....
A stand-alone low-level language....
But (may be my fault) I don't understand if terra is:
- a luaJit competitor
- a better system to interface with c library
- something better than luaJit using llvm
Can someone help me to better understand what is going on terralang project ?
Thanks
