The language itself being bare bones is great. The standard library being bare bones is not so great.
- DayDollar 7y agoI found the luarocks eco-system to be quite typically of web module software. Fractured between versions, incompatible and constantly requiring intervention to work. I do not blame them though- the language has gone through several 2.7 ~ 3.0 years of the snake shisms. PS: Looked around, and it turns out - there is even a lua implementation for the javascript vm.. https://fengari.io/ https://fengari.io/
- anonymoushn 7y agoUsing luaver and luarocks has been a pretty great experience for the last several years, except that there is often no library at all to do what you want. In this case I usually use a C library and the FFI.
