luau-wasm 0.1a0
Simon Willison released luau-wasm 0.1a0, a WebAssembly wheel that packages Luau for use with Pyodide. Luau is a fast, small, and safe scripting language derived from Lua, originally developed by Roblox. By packaging it as a Pyodide WebAssembly wheel, developers can now run Luau scripts directly in the browser using Python's Pyodide environment. The release was published to PyPI, following the approach described in Willison's article 'Publishing WASM wheels to PyPI for use with Pyodide,' also posted on June 13, 2026. This allows Luau to be imported and executed in web applications that leverage Pyodide, expanding the set of languages available in browser-based Python environments.
Enables running Luau scripts in the browser via Pyodide, expanding scripting options for web developers.
