Lua Scripting: Master complete Lua Programming from scratch
Olá!
Welcome to the complete Lua scripting course.
This course will teach you everything you need to know about the Lua scripting language.
We will start from scratch, installing Lua on your platform (Linux, macOS, and Windows), and progress to learn the main aspects of the Lua language. I will use Linux during the videos, but you can easily follow along with any other OS. If by any chance you cannot or do not want to install Lua in your machine, you can use an online website called replit which allows you to run your Lua scripts inside your web browser.
This course is divided into three main parts:
The first part is where we will cover the basics of the Lua language. We will learn the fundamentals of programming with Lua using variables, expressions, conditional statements, loops, functions, metatables, and other important commands and modules from the Lua language. This part covers Lua from the beginning to an advanced level, where I try to be super beginner-friendly. You'll be able to get up to speed even if you never programmed before.
The second part of the course is aimed at intermediate-to-advanced programmers that want to learn how to embed Lua within the C programming language. You'll learn how to embed and expose scripting capabilities to your C code and create a project that controls the movement of a player in C using Lua. If you don't want or don't care about integrating Lua with C, you are welcome to skip this section of the course. But this integration with C is one of the most powerful aspects of the Lua language and it is extremely important for professional programmers that want to take their Lua skills beyond the basics.
The third part of the course is a set of very short bonus lectures that explain how Lua is used with Roblox Studio. Roblox is a popular game engine that uses a dialect of Lua to script game logic and aspects of the game scene. We will learn how to use the commands we just learned to manipulate objects inside Roblox and also understand the basics of the Roblox Studio interface.
This course is a super complete package about one of the world's favorite scripting languages. You will benefit from it if you are a beginner or if you are a seasoned developer that wants to discover the power of the Lua language.
Be aware: This is not a course about Roblox! This is a course about the Lua programming language, and the final bonus lectures are just a basic overview of how Lua is used by Roblox developers.
Welcome aboard!
