Hyperscript is totally optional, you can use vanilla js or something like alpinejs for extra stuff

In my experience, you get 10x to 100x gains easily switching to something lighter than Rails, like Roda.
Re:LÖVE: a framework to make 2D games in Lua on Sunday September 17, 2023 @10:25AM (#37545370)
I'm trying to do something with DragonRuby Game Toolkit (Ruby is my main tool) but LÖVE always seemed nice, too. I also like Moonscript as an alternative to Lua language ( https://moonscript.org/ )
Re:Lite: A lightweight text editor written in Lua on Friday October 14, 2022 @12:29PM (#33205653)
If remember correctly, the [Howl editor](https://howl.io/about.html) has Lpeg and use of scintillua. It looks great and it's older but I'm not sure why Lite got more press coverage.
IMHO, it's way easier to check the script content before sudoing and validate its security than validate the Docker ecosystem.
