I love JS and Ruby, and I spent a bit of time maintaining a web app in Lua.

There are parts about the language I really enjoy. I like dynamic languages; I don't run into type issues so often it bothers me, but the tooling around Lua still leaves me wishing for me.

Part of this is really my own ability, or lack thereof, but I feel slow and constrained in lua. I have a hard time debugging, but I don't feel these things in other languages.
