@ -11,7 +11,8 @@ Rhai - Embedded Scripting for Rust
Rhai is an embedded scripting language and evaluation engine for Rust that gives a safe and easy way
to add scripting to any application.
Rhai's current features set:
Features
--------
* Easy-to-use language similar to JS+Rust with dynamic typing but _no_ garbage collector.
* Tight integration with native Rust [functions](#working-with-functions) and [types](#custom-types-and-methods),
@ -38,6 +39,19 @@ Rhai's current features set:
**Note:** Currently, the version is 0.14.2, so the language and API's may change before they stabilize.
What Rhai doesn't do
--------------------
Rhai's purpose is to provide a dynamic layer over Rust code, in the same spirit of _zero cost abstractions_.
It doesn't attempt to be a new language. For example:
* No classes. Well, Rust doesn't either. On the other hand...
* No traits... so it is also not Rust. Do your Rusty stuff in Rust.
* No structures - definte your types in Rust instead; Rhai can seamless work with _any Rust type_.
* No first-class functions - Code your functions in Rust instead, and register them with Rhai.
* No closures - do your closure magic in Rust instead; [turn a Rhai scripted function into a Rust closure](#calling-rhai-functions-from-rust).
* It is best to expose an API in Rhai for scripts to call. All your core functionalities should be in Rust.

* Common operators (e.g. `+`, `>`, `==`) now call into highly efficient built-in implementations for standard types
(i.e. `INT`, `FLOAT`, `bool`, `char`, `()` and some `String`) if not overridden by a registered function.
This yields a 5-10% speed benefit depending on script operator usage.
This yields a 5-10% speed benefit depending on script operator usage. Scripts running tight loops will see
significant speed-up.
* Implementations of common operators for standard types are removed from the `ArithmeticPackage` and `LogicPackage`
(and therefore the `CorePackage`) because they are now always available, even under `Engine::new_raw`.
