In short, this project permits to use Haxe programming language to create programs for PICO-8 (by transpiling Haxe into PICO-8's flavour of Lua).
This grants you classes, compile-time optimizations, constant and function inlining, and a whole bunch of other "syntactic sugar" features while keeping the output size reasonably small.
For example, this class compiles to this .p8.
Obviously, you can do more complex things with it too.
Have fun :)
