# Enable Scripting
The combination of scripting and compiled languages is very powerful. It gives us the things we've come to love about compiled languages: type safety, performance, thread safety options, consistent memory model while also giving us the flexibility to try something new quickly without a full rebuild.
The VM based compiled languages have learned this already: JRuby, Jython, IronRuby, IronPython
* [ChaiScript](http://chaiscript.com/)
* [AngelScript](http://www.angelcode.com/angelscript/)
* [luabind](http://www.rasterbar.com/products/luabind.html)
* [sol2](https://github.com/ThePhD/sol2) (bindings for Lua)
* [SWIG](http://www.swig.org/) (simplified wrapper and interface generator)
