[m8n] S8 on Lua

The m8n ("maiten"/moon) platform

We are runing S8 Smalltalk systems in Lua execution environments.
Status: Community BETA+ release (Nov 2018)
Follow us on Facebook
License terms? the same as all S8 contents, MIT licensed


Executing m8n platform

We have many alternatives to run m8n systems, basically we need a Lua VM to host a S8 snapshot file. We load the snapshot and the system is instantiated and start running as usual.
The snapshot can be built in console mode (same as we do for most S8 platforms) to be embedded in the hosting execution environment
A list of execution environments for m8n platform systems follows:
  1. [m8n] LuaStudio - embedding S8 in Lua Studio application
  2. [m8n] Turbo - implementing server apps (and SystemServer for remote access!) Uploaded Image: new.gif
  3. [m8n] workbench - how to run m8n embedded in a web page
