Funny enough now as I have been learning JS in depth the past few months I find myself often thinking "Damn I miss Lua, wish I could use it for everything"
Welcome to the other side. If you multiply your statement with -1, then you get exactly what I think of Lua / Javascript :)

Indeed, hehe. I totally get it, I can relate to some degree how having a long history with a language can make moving to another feel uncomfortable, in this context though doesn't reaper support a few scripting languages? I feel like they have Python and Perl.. Did they somehow miss JS??? I thought they had some kind of JS support.
I think Javascript is cool, and I have been learning it more lately to realize some web projects. I have also been learning C# for unity and digging deeper into C++ newer features that are utilized in JUCE now. I guess if anything I do think its worth giving Lua a chance as it is a pretty awesome, insanely tiny and very fast language with only a handfull of key syntax differences, most of which are reducing the number of keystrokes required to make things. Haven't tried Python, but I think it is similar in that respect.

I actually tried embedding Lua in the very early stages of HISE but went for the custom Javascript interpreter because i could tweak it to my needs - modifying the Lua code is a Pita.

when you say modifying the Lua code, do you mean extending Lua and connecting it with C++ functions to create the custom API for scripting HISE?
I did see that JUCE has a built in javascript engine, I hadn't noticed this before so not sure if its new or not. I'm curious if that formed the basis for your HISE JS scripting?

I'll let this guy answer your question :)

@christoph-hart Will you be going to ADC in London this year?
-
Most likely yes. I‘ll also plan to make another talk - if they accept my proposal ;)
-
@christoph-hart Great, not sure I'll make the conference (I'm not that interested in other JUCE stuff, just HISE, so the price isn't worth it for me) but I could take a trip to London and buy you a coffee.
-
@christoph-hart they should - that 2016 one was pretty awesome.
-
@d-healey @Christoph-Hart - make that two for coffee...damn cant count that would be three...
-
what about HDC18 ? ;)

Finally got around to booking my tickets, I'll be there from the 19th to the 21st, hope to see you :)
