Over the past two weeks, the Lua development experience with nCine has seen significant improvements!

Thanks to the availability of LuaCATS definitions, the Lua Language Server now offers autocomplete, type checking, and full API documentation for supported IDEs. If you are using Visual Studio Code, simply install the Lua extension, open the Addon Manager (accessible from the Command Palette), enable nCine from the list, and you’re all set.

Additionally, you can install the Local Lua Debugger extension to debug your scripts with features like breakpoints, call stacks, and variable inspection.

Last but not least, a new Lua API Documentation is now available online, courtesy of LDoc.

For more information, have a look at the Getting Started with Lua wiki article, and at the Lua Tutorial.
