    I tend to prefer editors to IDEs. Lua is a simple enough language and my codebases have been small enough that my usual Vim sufficed at the start for apps like http://akkartik.name/lines.html back in May 2022. Over time I figured out how to do live editing, and lately I build my apps 95% in https://git.sr.ht/~akkartik/driver.love. I find it to be quite a nice experience, particularly with 2 monitors. I open the app I'm working on in one monitor while running driver.love full screen in the other to make changes to it.

    Carousel has a whole new use case: building simple scripts right on my phone or tablet. Nothing else can do that as simply, I think. It's cross-platform but that's an experimental property I'm hoping to carry forward to other apps. The use case here is purely for mobile devices.

    Great question! It's not ideal, but has been outweighed so far by the other benefits I mentioned. I do track the issues I run into due to lack of static types[1] in the Manual_tests files in each of my projects, e.g. https://github.com/akkartik/lines.love/blob/e568378ecb/Manua...

    [1] I wouldn't say Lua/Python/Javascript has no types. They just lack types for variables rather than values. Forth, on the other hand, has no types period.
