There is a LaTeX package called citation-style-language, backed by
some software called citeproc-lua. The github page for the software is
here: https://github.com/zepinglee/citeproc-lua

I'm just wondering if there is more news about its potential
integration with Context.
A *very* quick and hacky implementation. First, clone the repository
plus all its submodules, then apply two small patches for Lua 5.5
compatibility:

Then, install all the files somewhere where ConTeXt can find them. The
following layout seems to work:

    $ tree -a $TEXMFHOME
    /home/max/Projects/citeproc-lua/texmf/
    ├── scripts
    │   ├── citation-style-language -> ../../citeproc/
    │   └── lua-uca -> ../../submodules/lua-uca/src/lua-uca/

            ├── lua-uni-algos -> ../../../submodules/lua-uni-algos/
            └── luaxml -> ../../../submodules/luaxml/

    12 directories, 0 files

Finally, make a new file somewhere in the "examples/" folder with the
following contents:

    \startluacode
        package.loaded.unicode = { utf8 = string }
        package.loaded.lualibs = {}
        kpse.find_file = function(name)
            local path = resolvers.findfile(name)
            if path == "" then
                path = nil
            end
            return path
        end

        local saved_require = require
        function require(name)
            return saved_require(name:gsub("^[^%.]+%.", ""))
        end

        local output = require("citeproc-output")

        \cslbibliography
    \stoptext

I've only tested this with the exact example from the README, so it will
probably break for anything even slightly more complex. Improving this
is left as an exercise for the reader :)
