“Very early on in the development of Lua we started using the question 'But will it work in a microwave oven?' as a half-serious test for including features while avoiding bloat. I'm glad to see that the eLua project promises to deliver Lua to small devices that can make a difference.”
Luiz Henrique de Figueiredo, Lua Team member

“eLua takes a rock-solid VM and fits it in a small space. It lets you program microcontrollers with an easy-to-learn, high-level language. I see this programming model and the eLua project itself really gaining momentum.”
Dean Hall, embedded systems developer

“eLua makes the complex world of 32-bit processors easy and affordable for all. Thanks for your great work guys. ”
Nuccio Raciti, Mizar32 project developer

“eLua is a great development platform for micro-controllers ”
Tim Michals, Cygentron Inc.

“In 1998, Cameron Laird predicted: "the imminent explosion of ubiquitous embedded processing (computers in your car, in your plumbing, and in your kitchen appliances) can only work in favor of Lua." eLua is a great help in spreading Lua to these devices.”
Roberto Ierusalimschy, Lua chief architect
