IMPORTANT: due to a drive failure, as of 13-Mar-2021, the Mercurial repository had to be re-mirrored, which changed every commit SHA. The old SHAs and trees are backed up in the vault branches. Please migrate to the new branches as soon as you can.

Ask HN: What's the stack for your "home-cooked meal" apps?
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.

Lua: The Little Language That Could
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.
