Relevance to permacomputing
---------------------------
-Spurred to action by the paper [[https://monoskop.org/images/6/6a/Mansoux_Aymeric_et_al_2023_Permacomputing_Aesthetics.pdf|Permacomputing Aesthetics: Potential and Limits of Constraints in Computational Art, Design and Culture]], L5 is one attempt to find a balance between constraint and creating a powerful tool for creative expression. Where its related predecessor Processing is about 500MB, and p5.js requires an entire web browser to operate, L5 along with its dependency framework Love2d together are 5 (Linux) to 20MB (macOS). Lua is a slowly-developed language, and Love2d is an open source, well-documented and responsive framework. We leverage and build upon this stack, and create a library using a familiar API and ecosystem. Along with the library, there is a documentation website built with accessibility in mind, including lazy loaded and compressed graphics, downloadable offline documentation of the entire site, the ability to use the site completely without JavaScript, hosted http and https versions of the site, and no Cloudflare.
