Ask HN: Looking for platforms, other than Roblox, that have adopted Luau
2 by aduermael | 0 comments on Hacker News.
We're considering adopting Luau for our project (a platform where users create games with cubes and Lua scripts). We're pretty happy with Lua already, but Luau brings type annotations and performance improvements while remaining backwards compatible with Lua 5.1. Luau's been developped by Roblox, open sourced in 2020, and still mostly used by Roblox apparently. Timing would be good for us if we decide to switch to Luau, but still, feedback from others who've been through the same Lua to Luau transition would be very helpful. Any ideas? Are we crazy to even consider this?
