I'm writing an educational tech stack in pure Lua and I've just reached a milestone: the build system is now itself implemented in pure lua, from which it bootstraps itself.

All of the main software is in an alpha/beta state: build system, version control, editor, documentation language (that's what renders the site), and find-replace tool.

I hope to be writing colored-text educational games by the summer. For folks who want to learn software engineering, getting involved in this project is a golden opportunity - help me develop a complete and learnable tech stack, and in the process help yourself learn to code!

Let me know if you have any questions or would like to be involved,

Rett
