Anytime Lua comes up I'm reminded of John Earnest's Lil scripting language[1]. It's inspired by Lua and Q, built for Decker[2] which is a re-imagined version of HyperCard. Generally though, I love lua for its embeddability and am extremely happy anytime I see someone chatting about integrating it. Modding and scripting in games was a tremendous motivation for me to dig more into programming and these approachable languages are a core aspect of that.
