Lux is one of five public openIE-dev projects. All five share a common substrate (flowG) and energy-metering layer (substrate-energy):

• flow-g, the IR + runtime substrate
• lux-lang, reactive language compiling to flowG
• jmax, math-native language
• joule-lang, energy-budgeted compiled language
• jouledb, energy-metered database
