#love on irc.oftc.net. If you aren't there, we're already laughing at you behind your back and talking shit about your waifu.

According to some, Zerobrane is also a pretty great Lua IDE. Check it out too!

/love/ -> /lua/

enjoy your newfound freedoms

metatables aren't that hard really and you don't have to think about them for a pretty long time. most of the time even when you do need it you're just setting __call for a constructor and __index to another table though to give you a class prototype

oop is also kinda beside the point though (basic classes != oop) and not correlated with good code (it is correlated with over-engineered bullshit though)

most of the relevant stuff for organizing code is just basic lua syntax sugar, like being able to write function some_table:whatever() and it passes self automatically if you also call with :whatever()

This is a really wise explanation.

yup, made with Lua! check the GitHub link in the footer!

Bot spam stuff will come Soon(tm)!

Me again, 4 months later, how is the development going?

I've been slowly reworking the code to be much cleaner and run off an api so i can support other clients in the future~

probably yes

Sure! I just updated it to run in Docker so it shoudl be WAY easier to set up now. I knwo the code is pretty messy, I am hoping to sit down and clean it up now that I have a better understanding of Lapis.

Short term wants is to make the code cleaner and less buggy, long term I want lapchan to run on a RESTful API.

test

what happend to lunaboards, it seems down

by making things in lua

i recommend the love2d wiki as a starting point they have a lot of good stuff https://love2d.org/wiki

I want to know why this damn thing isn't in luarocks, it makes life much more difficult than it should be.

I dunno maybe compatibility issues, its based on wx which is also stand alone so yeah
