As a Wren user: it works and is OK, but I wouldn't necessarily 
recommend Wren that much not for these reasons, but because it's 
not that easy to interface with and imports are annoying, also 
it's basically abandoned. The syntax is a polar opposite to D. 
We've modified the interpreter for our needs but surely there 
must be better alternatives, such as... regular Lua. I would have 
choosen something else now.
