As you know, Lua Alchemy is based on the old Adobe Alchemy technology, which is no longer supported by Adobe. \n\nIf you need Lua support in the browser, take a look at [lua.vm.js](https://kripken.github.io/lua.vm.js/lua.vm.js.html), [lua5.1.js](https://github.com/logiceditor-com/lua5.1.js/), [Moonshine](http://moonshinejs.org/) and other JS-based implementations. They are the future.\n\nIf you really need to use Lua in Adobe Flash, you may want to find someone to sponsor Lua Alchemy port to [FlashCC](http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/flascc/README.html), which is the current supported version of Adobe Alchemy. [My company](http://logiceditor.com) engineers are available to do the actual work, but, alas, I do not have resources to do this as an unpaid personal hobby project myself. If you're interested, please contact us at lua-alchemy@logiceditor.com.\n\nIf you need commercial support for the current Lua Alchemy, write at the same address.\n\nYou can get free support from the community at the [Lua Alchemy mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/lua-alchemy-dev) and on [StackOverflow](http://stackoverflow.com/search?q=lua-alchemy).\n\n-- Alexander Gladysh, the Lua Alchemy maintainer.\n\nBackground\n----------\n\nLua is a great dynamic programming language, Adobe Flash is a great\nuniversal platform for applications and Adobe Alchemy is the tool to\nbind them together.\n\nThe main webpage can be found here:\nhttp://code.google.com/p/lua-alchemy/\n\nLua\n---\nLua is a powerful, fast, light-weight, embeddable scripting language.\n\nLua combines simple procedural syntax with powerful data description\nconstructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics. Lua\nis dynamically typed, runs by interpreting bytecode for a register-based\nvirtual machine, and has automatic memory management with incremental\ngarbage collection, making it ideal for configuration, scripting, and\nrapid prototyping.\n\n-- http://lua.org/about.html\n\nAdobe Flash\n-----------\n\nAdobe Flash (previously called \"Macromedia Flash\"') is a set of\nmultimedia software created by Macromedia and currently developed and\ndistributed by Adobe Systems. Since its introduction in 1996, Flash has\nbecome a popular method for adding animation and interactivity to web\npages; Flash is commonly used to create animation, advertisements, and\nvarious web page components, to integrate video into web pages, and more\nrecently, to develop rich Internet applications.\n\n-- http://en.wikipedia.com/wiki/Flash\n\nAdobe Alchemy\n-------------\n\nWith Alchemy, Web application developers can now reuse hundreds of\nmillions of lines of existing open source C and C++ client or\nserver-side code on the Flash Platform. Alchemy brings the power of high\nperformance C and C++ libraries to Web applications with minimal\ndegradation on AVM2. The C/C++ code is compiled to ActionScript 3.0 as a\nSWF or SWC that runs on Adobe Flash Player 10 or Adobe AIR 1.5.\n\n-- http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/alchemy/\n\nMotivation\n----------\n\nWe need Lua Alchemy to...\n\n  * ...To use *run-time dynamic* programming language (Lua) within\n    the Flash framework.\n  * ...To *reuse* existing Lua code for the Flash-based utilities\n  * ...To get a *great cross-platform back-end* (Flash) for (simpler)\n    Lua-based games\n  * ...To have fun with *awesome* new technology :-)\n\nFile Manifest\n-------------\n\n    AUTHORS - Contact information for the authors of lua-alchemy\n    BUGS - List of known issues\n    COPYRIGHT - Copyright for the lua-alchemy project\n    HISTORY - Project history log\n    README - This file describing the project\n    SPONSORS - The list if Lua Alchemy sponsors\n    alchemy/ - Builds lua-alchemy.swc\n    build/ - Build utility tools\n    demo/ - Flash and Flex demos\n    etc/ - Odds and ends of various usefulness\n    test/ - Lua and ActionScript tests\n\n[![Bitdeli Badge](https://d2weczhvl823v0.cloudfront.net/lua-alchemy/lua-alchemy/trend.png)](https://bitdeli.com/free \"Bitdeli Badge\")\n","funding_links":[],"categories":["Lua Implementations"],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Flua-alchemy%2Flua-alchemy","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Flua-alchemy%2Flua-alchemy","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Flua-alchemy%2Flua-alchemy/lists"}
