To start learning Lua choose Console from main menu then select Tutorials (first aid kit icon). Now read & apply and you will learn Lua basic’s in no time!
Kindly Note: Touch Lua uses Lua 5.2 standard, so if you hit into undefined function see the alternative for it from the reference. some examples: unpack() now is table.unpack(), loadstring() is now load()
Make sure to take a look at other free App’s from Hawwash-Soft
Overall the app is brilliant, but you need to pay for all the external libraries. If some libraries such as turtle were free, this would be better. But if your willing to spend money (like me in the future) this is the place for you. It has all sorts of different External libraries.
Needs an iPad version and graphical support.

Great IDE, has helped me to learn Lua a lot. It would be even better if there was an iPad version and some form of graphical API. Otherwise great. Many thanks. :)
Great

This app is great - having fun messing around with LUA (mainly practicing ComputerCraft while on my iPod)I just wish it had pastebin support- like ComputerCraft computers, if so, then it would be perfect :DRating it ***** anyways due to having only that slight sugestion.
Very helpful
