LuaLuxa

DESCRIPTION

Loxide is a collection of libraries for lua, expressly written for the purpose to replace Python in everyday tasks.

  • The Tech Stack: Rust, mlua, Lua
  • The Goal: To replace python with lua in my everyday life

GOAL:

The goal of lualuxa is to not use python. Personally, I don’t like python. but I love Lua.

I could rant for hours on the reasons I love Lua.
Lua is not a very complex Language. It’s absolutely Minimal, from the syntax to the standard library. But almost everytime I use it, I learn something new about it.

For example, Using Metatables, you can override the __add() function for Strings, allowing you to make it possible to append strings with the ’+’ Operator like you would in python.

and thus I decided to make lua a viable alternative for everyday tasks, automation-and-utility scripting.

Think of it as a non-standard - standard library for Lua.


STATUS:

not currently openly available but I am planning on making them publically available once I feel comfortable with the amount of functionality and the stability
