Thank you very much for this! I've been wanting to learn lua for a couple of childhood games, and It quickly turned into a wall of tabs trying to figure out where to start. This made the process very simple, and thanks again!
HOLY FUCK dude i never managed to successfully do "Hello World!" before when i tried programming YEARS ago. tried again with lua and followed this guide and holy fuck man. i genuinely feel so proud of myself getting this to work under your instructions. seriously man this is a great starting point
Followed another tutorial that did not say to rename the top file to lua.exe. That fixed the issue, this tutorial is very professional and straight to the point. Thank you!
damn finally a simple straight forward tutorial Would really love see a tutorial for vim or neovim with lua? I really want to use vim but cant get past through the configuration stage
Yeah I would really like to make that video, I've actually rewritten my neovim config in lua recently and have been getting it to a state that I would be comfortable showing off, definitely stay tuned for that!
Question, I downloaded ZeroBrane and I was just wondering, do I still need to add text document and open it w/ ZB (Bc that isnt working for me) or will it work fine if I just click ZB and open a new file on it?
Hi, I have an assignment on Lua and i have been going through your tutorials on UA-cam, How can I make my output of the 'if statement' to display one part of the statement. My code has multiple if statements but i want to display one at a time. At the moment the results are all displayed simultaneously yet I want to run each if statement end it, then clear screen and then the second automatically runs again, up to the 10th one, Your immediate response will be appreciated.
Whenever I try to code with vscode and run it, it would always say in the output “ ‘lua’ is not recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file”
when I put my code in everything was fine up untill the end when it said "Lua: cannot open HelloWorld.Lua: No such file or directory" how do I fix this?
I did everything you said. Renamed the file, made the print Hello World lua, ran cmd, ran lua, got version info,, typed in control c, then tried to run the hello world and it said no such file or directory.
as far as i know the best part of lua is that its unique enviromental , in short it can b used on any enviroment . but not on its own. but something is missing and no one fully explains anything about enviroments. conts and pros using win mac or linux. or for example there is chips that are codded in lua as well , so it means this chips have their own enviroment. there is bunch of tutorials, but most of them are locked to the game. and what if i want to just start exercising , and write simple script that would for example , auto click , in certain tab or something else to do exercising to learn how to deal with enviroment to gain skill. but most of tuts give instructions , not some exersises. for example if u know factorio , u start from scratch , extend keep adding factories , automate things and keep growing. with most of tuts on youtube. u cant even properly start.
pls make a tutorial about how to install luafs via luarocks on windows... putting luafs´s exe into the lua folder and then using it is no problem, but installing luafs or something else is. It downloades the packages fine but then gives me an error "failed to build" and something with like "needs to be executed in a visual studio dev terminal". But as i tried that it wont work as well.... Please help me 🙏
when i type in cmd: lua helloworld.lua it says C:\Users\Everett\Documents\lua pograms>lua helloworld.lua 'lua' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. i dont know what i do
can someone help I clicked path in sysem variables but I cannot click edit as the edit button is grayed out. and my account is an admin account if that helps.
hello its been months since this video was out and the tutorial is very clear and i followed all the steps but this message always appear in the cmd prompt "'lua' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." and when i extracted the file you said to download (it was a winRAR for mine) the files were not named with .exe probobly bcuz i didnt have the file name extension put on check, but the message "'lua' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." always appear in the command prompt. even when i try vscode it still says "'lua' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." edit: forgot to add, i did many lua tutorials on how to download it, it always end u like that
Thank you. The website which says "Lua is easy to install!" is a joke. Unless you already know everything they're talking about, it's google hell for you.
Straight to the point and easy to understand. There aren't enough tutorials like yours on the Internet!
Thank you very much for this! I've been wanting to learn lua for a couple of childhood games, and It quickly turned into a wall of tabs trying to figure out where to start. This made the process very simple, and thanks again!
Perfect Explanation. VERY CLEAR, short and to the point. A Pleasure to watch.
Thanks! ☺
HOLY FUCK dude i never managed to successfully do "Hello World!" before when i tried programming YEARS ago. tried again with lua and followed this guide and holy fuck man. i genuinely feel so proud of myself getting this to work under your instructions. seriously man this is a great starting point
there is no .exe in the lua files
Really clear and simple. Was looking for how to install and this made it easy.
Now this is how to do a tutorial. You said more in 5 minutes than several other install tutorials did in over double the time!
Really clear and straightforward, much appreciated :)
THANK YOU for this tutorial. finally able to feel like i did something without going around in circles and downloading stuff i dont need
Followed another tutorial that did not say to rename the top file to lua.exe. That fixed the issue, this tutorial is very professional and straight to the point. Thank you!
you are such a good teacher I was able to keep up and I'm dumb as a rock.
i only had to pause like 2 times once to download lua and once to type the script
How do you go about installing Luarocks with it as well?
i did everything but when i type lua into cmd it says 'lua' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
hey, did you change the name of lua53 (or any other version) to lua? It looks like that is the problem to me
@@Dikkekrimmen don’t worry I got it
3:05 ANIME ART WHAT????? Nice vid btw
Awesome guide, straight to the point and easy to follow. Thank you!
i was confused on 2:59 im just saying did you restart you pc
Super video but at 2:18 you say to press edit but my edit button is gray and i can’t click on it.Can i know why ?
Thanks i kept having an issue where the lua version wasn't coming up and i rewatched the video to make it work
Now I can continue learning basics for coding. Thank you very much.
thank u so much, i needed this for a gorilla tag mod page and the only code language i knew was lua so thanks bro👍
Why cant I open the "HelloWorld" notebook document in cmd panel?
did you run cmd from the folder? I think you might just have opened regular cmd and tried to run it. 4:33
Your video was really helpful to get started. Thank you!
Good guide, it works even in 2022!
Thanks a lot! Keep up the good work!
thank you! very informative, easy to follow and isn't filled with bloat like many tutorials :D
Amazing tutorial, straight to the point and easy to follow!
Thank you for an awesome video just subbed :)
I cant run my lua it just says fiel unable to be found please help
did you run cmd from the folder? I think you might just have opened regular cmd and tried to run it. 4:33
run cmd from the folder, if you named it to lua use lua, if you didnt rename the file use lua"then the version of the lua program"
Does the link in your description not work anymore?
damn finally a simple straight forward tutorial
Would really love see a tutorial for vim or neovim with lua? I really want to use vim but cant get past through the configuration stage
Yeah I would really like to make that video, I've actually rewritten my neovim config in lua recently and have been getting it to a state that I would be comfortable showing off, definitely stay tuned for that!
Question, I downloaded ZeroBrane and I was just wondering, do I still need to add text document and open it w/ ZB (Bc that isnt working for me) or will it work fine if I just click ZB and open a new file on it?
Press “alt” + “f4”
Coming to the end of 2022 thank you. 🙏🏾
Thank you guy! It's more understandable than video in my language for me
hey i already have a visual code app does it mean i dont have to do any of those extra steps bs i already see the Lua logo on the folder im working on
Good tutorial, sadly 5:37 i cant do cuz visual studio code stops me from printing it :(

when i use the hello world command in the cmd it re opens note pad and dosnt print on cmd?
simple and clear nice tutorial good man you win one like !
Thank you, im trying to get into coding some scripts and games of sorts and this helped getting me started so thank you for the help!

Sounds like you need to change your terminals working directory to be where the lua script is, I would look into the 'cd' command
I did everything you said. Renamed the file, made the print Hello World lua, ran cmd, ran lua, got version info,, typed in control c, then tried to run the hello world and it said no such file or directory.
as far as i know the best part of lua is that its unique enviromental , in short it can b used on any enviroment . but not on its own.
but something is missing and no one fully explains anything about enviroments. conts and pros using win mac or linux. or for example there is chips that are codded in lua as well , so it means this chips have their own enviroment.
there is bunch of tutorials, but most of them are locked to the game. and what if i want to just start exercising , and write simple script that would for example , auto click , in certain tab or something else to do exercising to learn how to deal with enviroment to gain skill. but most of tuts give instructions , not some exersises.
for example if u know factorio , u start from scratch , extend keep adding factories , automate things and keep growing. with most of tuts on youtube. u cant even properly start.
Hahahaha I'm here because of Factorio
what
It worked! Recommended video.

That was great. It looks like i'm one step closer to CS50
I didn't know it is easy to download lua before I watch this video
Thanks! Simple and concise!
You should add a updated video showing other how to compile and add lua to visual studio code on windows
Great video, thank you! Straight to the point.
Thank you so much. I'm now going to use the script in my Lua document to make a Friday Night Funkin game. You gained 1 sub.
