bytexenon/Tiny-Lua-Compiler

Implements a complete compilation pipeline—tokenizer, parser, AST generator, and bytecode VM—all in a single ~2000-line Lua file with extensive inline documentation. Self-hosting and dependency-free, it targets Lua 5.1 semantics while deliberately omitting advanced optimizations (constant folding, debug symbols) to remain pedagogically focused and maintainable.
