WattleScript is a scripting engine written in C# for runtimes supporting .NET Standard 2.0 and newer. (.NET 4.7.2+, .NET Core 3.1+). It is a dual-language environment, providing support for Lua 5.2 code as well as its own language, Wattle.

Using WattleScript is as easy as:

var script = new Script();
script.DoString("print('Hello World!')");

WattleScript is based off the tried and tested MoonSharp project, inheriting its VM design and test suite. The design focuses on easy and fast interop with .NET objects and functions.

Features

  • Wattle scripting language.
  • Lua mode 99% compatible with Lua 5.2, differences documented here.
