I’ve been trying to get luarocks to work on windows, and all it gives is cryptic gcc errors.
How does pip manage to work on most platforms without issues?

I’d love to hear a technical answer, but one thing that’s probably part of it is the fact that pip is written in Python and Python runs everywhere without much problem (though uv also seems to work pretty flawlessly too lol)
Lua runs everywhere (almost), but I cannot install a uuid library on windows.
IIRC I’ve had pip fail like that too. Unable to build a lib it included.
Pip does fail sometimes, but its not half as bad as luarocks.
