These are a couple of videos I have watched and helped me a lot to understand, for example how Lua works behind the scenes.

Clearly there are other videos in the list, such as for C++ and so forth.

Nice, anything from Roberto (the Lua creator) is usually good material, many talks from him is an inspiration for Nelua.

I will be updating it with more content every time I find something interesting.

Can you check how to pin a discussion ticket?

You could add to the list:

https://floooh.github.io/2018/06/17/handles-vs-pointers.html
https://floooh.github.io/2019/09/27/modern-c-for-cpp-peeps.html (some ideas applies to Nelua)
https://sasluca.github.io/cmm

And the PDFs I think are too dense for this list.

Done.
