Reactive Server Pages (RSP) released!
I’m pleased to announce the release of Reactive Server Pages (RSP)
Reactive Server Pages (RSP) bring some concepts of reactive languages to the realm of server-side web development.
RSP rearrange the way web applications are developed.
A web application conceptually becomes a single file that executes from its first to its last line.
The programmer can use structured programming with loops and recursive calls.
RSP are based on LuaGravity, which extends the Lua language with reactive data and control primitives.
Any feedback is welcome.

LuaGravity 0.6 released!
I’m pleased to announce the release of LuaGravity 0.6.
LuaGravity is a reactive language that implements the synchronous approach for concurrency.
It is roughly based on Esterel and FrTime, two reactive synchronous languages, the former having an imperative style, the latter being functional.
LuaGravity is implemented as a set of runtime extensions to the Lua language.
Any feedback is welcome.

Changes in LuaGravity 0.6:
^ Several changes in the API.
+ `deactivate` and `reactivate` functionality.
+ Support for multiple LuaGravity applications in the same process.
+ Support for the *step execution model*.
