Lua-eco is a Lua interpreter with a built-in event loop for scheduling lightweight coroutines automatically, enabling efficient concurrency in Lua. Build high-performance, scalable applications.
What was the motivation for creating this? Was it mostly to have a runtime with a smaller footprint?

I've been looking for a smaller alternative to something like Node, and I thought Lua might be a good choice since it's tiny and has coroutines. This looks like it might be a good fit!
