Pluto

A superset of Lua 5.4 with a focus on general-purpose programming.

New Syntax

Pluto implements various popular syntaxes that are absent in Lua, such as switch statements, compound operators, ternary expressions, etc.

Compatibility

Pluto is remarkably compatible with Lua's source & bytecode. The only conflict is how our new keywords may conflict with identifiers, however we offer "Compatibility Mode" to resolve this issue.

Larger Standard Library

Dozens of new string functions, table functions, portable filesystem functions, assertion libraries for unit testing, hashing algorithms, JSON, Base64, URL encoding, Vector3, and more.
