Hi Mithun,

Looking over the code for lua it seems that you use std.format a 
lot a ctfe.
I would advise against that as it needlessly increases compile 
times.
The built-in concat operator is supposed to be faster in many 
cases.

I am interested in how you handle complex types i.e. structs with 
pointers of the same struct type and the like.

I think moonshot is a worthwhile effort.
Congrats for getting something like this to work.
