Is there a good general-ish purpose scripting language (something like Lua on the smaller end or Python on the bigger) that’s implemented in only Rust, ideally with a relatively low number of dependencies?
Have you used it yourself, if so for what and what was your experience?
Bonus points if it’s reasonably fast (ideally JITed, though I’m not sure if that’s been done at all in Rust).

Seems to be missing mlua at least: https://github.com/mlua-rs/mlua
According to the readme, that’s Lua bindings and not the language itself, that’s probably why it’s not on the list since it wasn’t written in Rust.
I don’t know how I didn’t register the existence of roc.
I’m reading through the tutorial, and it looks very interesting.
