Thoughts on Lua?
| It's used for WoW mods
| gmods
| https://lunaboards.xyz is the best thing ever made with lua
| It uses super basic programming concepts and you gotta make more complicated structuring yourself. I like it!
| great first language for programing even easier than python. Also can be used with c languages also.
| >>201119 depends, Lua has a very small standard library, python has a rather large standard library, Lua is designed to be lightweight and fast, python is more of a general purpose language.
| So for embedded use Lua is great but if you aren't limited and can use something less niche then python is probably the better choice.
| Lua shines when used inside of games and such where size is somewhat important but the lack of things (in the standard library) like regex can be rather annoying
