I'm going to be making a roadmap for learning Lua on Android. This is just an index post I'll be making and editing whenever I can!

Why learn Lua?

Lua is quite popular for writing games and mods forn games.

Also, and I can't emphasize enough how much this means to me, personally: it's not Java.

Lua is a bit faster and lightweight. I'm going easy since my phone's really old.

Sorry, you're making a post to list all the other posts you're going to make about lua? Is that the purpose of this post? Why not post it all in one post?
