    I can’t wait for the Linux Kernel in Roblox, then Busybox in Roblox, then GCC in Roblox, and then…

      Roblox in Roblox?

      Bitdancer said they weren't thinking of supporting Linux, so how about we do the exact opposite?

    As an roblox developer who's about to release TTS for roblox we get an little wild.

    The cool thing about wasynth is that it also supports other wasm languages which is supercool because now basically everything (most languages support wasm as a target now) can run on roblox

      Right? It's so cool! I wish there was more official support for it, though I also empathise with the engineering POV as to why it wouldn't be high on the list of priorities.

    Compiling to an interpreted language. 😆

      That's legit how Unity supported the web for ages. Compiling to optimized js using emscripten

      Luau actually somewhat supports compiling to native instructions now

      Before wasynth there was asm.js. This practice is pretty old.

    I am a former & reformed software engineer and for some reason I watch videos about the subject still to feel validated about leaving when I did. I am so glad there are people like you out there who are still interested in this mayhem, and your new libraries remind me of my efforts in 2010. Keep it up and great videos

    This is pretty neat! There are plenty of crates that can't be compiled to wasm unfortunately :/

    Even after reading source code of wasynth and lingua, I still don't have an idea how it is works. Does it create a sort of virtual machine or represent whole wasm into luau. Well virtual machine sounds more real as I saw there was a wasm memory and I couldn't connect wasm memory with transformation from wasm to luau.
    I like this new topic but unfortunately there very few resources where I can read about it.

    Honestly if I was ever to create a platform like that I'd just start with WASM.

      Same! It's a shame that it wasn't around in 2006 because it'd have been a perfect fit.

    never seen someone pronounce luau as "loo ow"
    ive always pronounced it "loo uh you"
    i might just try your pronounciation cuz it sounds funnier
