Familiar with programming, not prolific, any advice?

I have been venturing into implementing the high level parts of MCU firmware using scripted languages like Lua and Micropython. I'm currently working on a project for a customer that uses Micropython to implement the logic. It is a whole lot less tedious compared to using C.

When working near Playstation2 game developers, I noticed this approach but with "eLUA" instead of "LUA"

"e" = embedded.

They said that you save a lot of times, and it was true by taking a look at the project work tables.
(I was there as temporary project manager, even if got hired to support MIPS-specific things)

eLUA and LUA are pretty much the same because LUA by itself is pretty lightweight already. There are actually several forks of LUA for embedded (microcontroller) use so eLua as-is doesn't really exist. I'm working on-and-off on a LUA fork myself that is easy to use with a round-robin (OS less) scheduler. I still need to improve ways to do single stepping through the Lua script.
