My Totally Non-Authoritative Experiments and Conclusions about Vala->Lua/Lua->Vala

This is a web site I set up to record my observations into using Lua within Vala and Vala within Lua in a way that is organizable. Embedding Lua into a compiled, program in a C-Like programming language is relatively easy, but it's still linking a scripting language into a compiled C-Like program. It's still pretty complicated. It's not much more than notes and code, and that's all it'll be for a while, but I'll keep at it.
