Can confirm that Lua does run in WASM in the browser: https://github.com/vvanders/wasm_lua

I sometimes wonder what the world would be like if Lua had zero based indices and saw a bit broader adoption. It's such an easy language to embed/extends although QuickJS looks like it's going to give it a run for the money in the long term given the similar goals on ease of embedding.

I wonder if anyone has compiled QuickJS to WASM and run it in the browser.

Fabrice Bellard actually did it himself here: http://numcalc.com/
