Roblox Hack Week 2019 – Luaujit

Background: Luau is the new Lua interpreter now used in production by Roblox as a scripting engine in games. Design goals[0] from when they were first starting the project, and current progress[1].

Once a year Roblox has a week were engineers hack out a feature prototype, which doesn't usually go anywhere, but zeuxcg has a good track record of turning them into full features.
