LuaJIT is a <strong>Just-In-Time Compiler</strong> for the Lua
programming language.
</p>
<p class="indent">
Lua is a powerful, light-weight programming language designed
for extending applications. Lua is also frequently used as a
general-purpose, stand-alone language. More information about
Lua can be found at: <a href="http://www.lua.org/"><span class="ext">»</span> http://www.lua.org/</a>
</p>
<p>
LuaJIT 1.x is based on the Lua 5.1.x virtual machine and bytecode interpreter
from lua.org. It compiles bytecode to native x86 (i386+) machine code
to speed up the execution of Lua programs.
</p>
<p>
LuaJIT depends on <a href="coco.html">Coco</a> to allow yielding
from coroutines for JIT compiled functions. Coco is part of the
LuaJIT distribution.
