It's an incredible lua replacement for embedding. A lot of the time for an embedded scripting language you're defining a DSL which bare lua is fairly poorly suited to. And you lose the tininess and simplicity of the embedding if you're having to cram PCRE and shit in there too. Janet basically just copies lua's C interop because it's the best part of lua. And then with PEGs and a solid macro system you're in a much better position for scripting, or defining a scripting environment, or a configuration DSL, or whatever you wanted a non-C language for. |
