=======
a fast, simple C++ and Lua Binding
----------------------------------
When you need to hit the ground running with Lua and C++, `Sol`_ is the go-to framework for high-performance binding with an easy to use API.

"I need feature X, maybe you have it?"
--------------------------------------
Take a look at the :doc:`Features<features>` page: it links to much of the API. You can also just straight up browse the :doc:`api<api/api-top>` or ease in with the :doc:`tutorials<tutorial/tutorial-top>`. Don't see a feature you want? Send inquiries for support for a particular abstraction to the `issues`_ tracker.
