This is a project to compile LLVM IR to Roblox Luau.

$ rbxllc <input.ll> -o <output.lua>

• -o <output.lua>: Output file
• -v or --version: Print version information
• -s: generate code that is buffer-overflow strict. _{This will make the generated code slower, larger, and less readable but can fix programs that depend on buffer overflow behavior.}
• -nb: use Luau 5.4 operaters instead of the bit32 library.
• -cbuff: generated code will not expose functions from the Luau buffer.
• -cbit: generated code will not expose functions from the Luau bit32.

• LLVM 14 (no higher)
• pip install llvmlite
• python3 You can install prebuilt binaries from the releases page.

1. Compile test.c to test.ll using clang:

$ clang -S -emit-llvm test/test.c -o test/test.ll

2. Compile test.ll to test.lua using rbxllc:

$ rbxllc test/test.ll -o test/test.lua

3. Run test.lua using luau:

$ luau test.lua
