Minetest, a voxel game engine created to be something like a Minecraft clone, is finally smashing apart the chains to become more its own unique thing.

    @Faresh Yeah, Lua definitely does have some weaknesses but I’ve seen worse so it doesn’t stop me from using it.

    I’m not aware of any TypeScript-like language for Lua.
    I found TypeScriptToLua but I don’t like the idea as those are entirely different languages.

    But luacheck is relatively popular in the Luanti community for static code analysis and linting.

      Thanks! Yeah, typescript was just an example that I gave because it was made to tackle the perceived problems in javascript. I never used it myself and just mentioned it to explain the idea I was getting at.
