Codehooks vs. FastScript vs. Lua vs. dbExpress Drivers Comparison Chart

Codehooks is a new and simplified backend-as-a-service to create complete API backends with JavaScript / Node.JS. Enjoy smooth and fast backend development with ZERO config serverless JavaScript/TypeScript/Node.js with integrated NoSQL document Database, Key-Value store, CRON Jobs and Queue Workers. The document database is built with RocksDB and provides a MongoDB-ish query language.

Lua is a powerful, efficient, lightweight, embeddable scripting language. It supports procedural programming, object-oriented programming, functional programming, data-driven programming, and data description. Lua combines simple procedural syntax with powerful data description constructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics. Lua is dynamically typed, runs by interpreting bytecode with a register-based virtual machine, and has automatic memory management with incremental garbage collection, making it ideal for configuration, scripting, and rapid prototyping. Lua has a deserved reputation for performance. To claim to be "as fast as Lua" is an aspiration of other scripting languages. Several benchmarks show Lua as the fastest language in the realm of interpreted scripting languages. Lua is fast not only in fine-tuned benchmark programs, but in real life too. Substantial fractions of large applications have been written in Lua.
