Exactly. Anyone who has ever actually done embedded work with Lua knows you can hardly get any closer in terms of &quot;low-level&quot; outside of the C API besides using LuaJIT&#x27;s ffi.<p>If anything this is actually a <i>high level</i> abstraction <i>on top</i> of LuaJIT&#x27;s ffi, so this is far from low level. God forbid anyone criticize anything on HN.
