I’m building a new game and I need to build a web app to help manage content generation. The app would consist of a couple simple forms that would tie into a MySQL db.
I’ve been really interested in learning Lua for a long time due to it’s large popularity in the video game industry and was wondering how well it works as a server side language. I could easily write the web app in PHP but I’d rather use this opportunity to learn Lua if it makes sense.
What do you all think?
Cheers,
Sure it can be done. Good idea if you just want to learn Lua. You should start here: http://www.keplerproject.org/
