Nice to Have: Think about exposing Satin API to Lua or some other scripting engine #6
Description
Activity
Have you considered Zig language? it's optimised for "data design" level programming ie speed, low level types, graphics etc and has the bonus of being able to compile source code cross platform (macOS, windows and linux, which i know is outside scope of Satin/Fabric).
there's also a scripting language derivative called Cypher (IIRC) which is still very much in beta but it's based on Zig and a blitzing fast for an interpreted (JIT compiled) scripting language in comparison with python, optimised JS/typescript etc.
Today, Velvet, our experimental live coding prototype does a bunch of crazy shit to make Swift do stuff it really doesnt want to do.
In my estimation, using Swift is the wrong language for a live coding setup for Satin, as
I think if we can 'scope' some bindings and expose them to an embedded runtime, the 'safety' of Velvet would be better.
The first step to that is picking a language and thinking about bindings.
