For a while, I thought that luvit is completely undocumented. But then, I found out that one just goes to nodejs.org ...

So far, I mostly like it. Recently, I used it to build a PoC for an in-house testing tool for embedded devices and decided to slap a web interface onto it for fun (just like Twisted provokes you to add an NNTP and an SSH interface just for fun).

What I'm a bit unhappy with is the decision to be incompatible with the rest of the Lua world. From what I read in the mailing list, it's not just "sorry, that rock uses blocking file IO" but rather "Lua is Lua, and luvit is luvit".
