<dt>Q: Lua runs everywhere. Why doesn't LuaJIT support my CPU?</dt>
<dd>Because it's a compiler &mdash; it needs to generate native
machine code. This means the code generator must be ported to each
architecture. And the fast interpreter is written in assembler and
must be ported, too. This is quite an undertaking.<br>
The <a href="install.html">install documentation</a> shows the supported
architectures. Other architectures will follow based on sufficient user
demand and/or sponsoring.</dd>
