No, speed isn't the issue. Its installing packages/modules on windows with luarocks, the lua package manager. It doesn't work half the time on windows.

no its a reference to javascript.

most people are on windows, so if I make something, it should support that.

Thanks, this is the explanation I was looking for.

Also, lua is the same, packages are either written in c or pure lua.

I was thinking of making a simple SSG (Static Site Generator), and I wanted to make it in lua.
some other cli tools, like scraping scripts as well.

I'm a big fan of what it is, but I'd love if there was something unique people could come here for, I'm describing it terribly though.

It would be nice to hear about it in other places.

hetzner is a very popular cloud hosting provider.

Ah, I'm the one who misread, sorry.

Yeah, compiling things from scratch is the norm for lua packages, making them really only work on linux.

Sorry if it was unclear, I constantly get cryptic gcc errors using luarocks a package manager for lua. Its years behind pip.

Pip does fail sometimes, but its not half as bad as luarocks.
