Platform for Internet of Things with Lua. Modern IoT device embedded software development platform.

Node.lua is a framework for "Internet of Things" built on lightweight Lua interpreter and libuv for event driven (non-blocking I/O model) similar to node.js.

Using dynamic languages to develop embedded applications, you can focus on application logic, quickly respond to rapidly changing requirements, and implement faster functional iterations.

• Use pure C language, easy to transplant, superior performance, flexible and compact
• Use mature frameworks like libuv
• Use simple and easy to use Lua as the application development language
• Use the same core API as Node.js
• provide a common extension of the library, and easy to expand on their own
• Specifically for embedded optimization, fast running, less space

Current supported platforms are Linux.

macOS & Windows as development host.

• Raspberry Pi
• Nano Pi
• MT7688
• Hi3516

Node.lua was designed to build seamlessly with minimal dependencies on most platforms:

• All platforms: CMake >= 2.8
• Windows: MSVC++
• MacOS: XCode
• Linux: Make, GCC

# Install CMake
$ sudo apt install cmake

# Build source code
$ make build

# Install to the current system
$ make install
