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.

The subreddit's old reddit sidebar description is:

Once upon a time this was a space for IT-related ragecomics. Although we've progressed past that era of the Internet zeitgeist, there's still plenty of rage to commiserate over. Come share whatever it is that drives you to drink during your change control meetings.

There is so many scripts and programs I would have written in lua if this thing worked properly.

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.
