My Lua experience is about 15 years old at this point, but back then I recall Luarocks had like 10 packages that were actually stable and maintained. Basically a ghost town. I’m gonna guess it hasn’t gotten much better.
It’s a lot better, but a lot haven’t been updated in ages, usually some random dependency to a package won’t install because of some compilation error.

These days there are ten packages for every task.
I used to use Wally a long time ago, but that is mainly Roblox package management. It also uses Cargo.
