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?

    Sorry if it was unclear, I constantly get cryptic gcc errors using luarocks a package manager for lua. Its years behind pip.

      No, you were clear. That’s what I understood you to mean.

        Ah, I’m the one who misread, sorry.

        Yeah, compiling things from scratch is the norm for lua packages, making them really only work on linux.
