Why learn Lua?
Why learn Lua?
Lua is quite popular for writing games and mods forn games.
Also, and I can't emphasize enough how much this means to me, personally: it's not Java.
Lua is a bit faster and lightweight. I'm going easy since my phone's really old.
me who learned lua on ComputerCraft 8 years ago: 😎
