Teal – A statically-typed dialect of Lua

This is super cool. I have been using TypeScript To Lua (https://github.com/TypeScriptToLua/TypeScriptToLua) for a little game side project and it works quite well, I am pleased with it. It does end up generating a lot of Lua code though because it has to support all of TypeScript’s features, which isn’t ideal. I’d expect Teal’s output to be much more concise Lua which has me interested.

Teal's output is currently pretty much 1-to-1 with the input apart from removing all of the type information of course. (I've been trying hard to keep it that way so that the error messages in stack traces match the input lines without having to do source mapping.)
