I never said you have to use lua.org, i was literally saying that your arguments dont make sense. How was that being aggressive?
This is not really an argument, in an argument, I feel like you fight for what you think is right. I am just peacefully stating that why I donāt want to use lua.org.
If itās not gonna help making Roblox games, thereās not a need to learn it over something like python. Once again, I believe Roblox lua and lua are a bit different. I already know all the ābasicsā for lua. Thereās not a need to go their. All I need to learn is in roblox studio, and that are all the events and built in functions made by roblox and what they do in game.
It will. It better explains Lua libraries that you will end up using to make your games.
They arenāt. If you take the new Luau syntax out of the equation, they arenāt at all.

Hey I just edited my post a bit. Can you reply to the updated version.
Python is not going to help you make Roblox games.
Make sure to read this bit:
You have been using math.random() to generate pseudo-random numbers, youāve been inserting values into tables using table.insert(), these are all part of standard libraries provided by Lua.
Not sure why youāre avoiding quite literally the most reliable resource for learning Lua with the pretext that āitās boringā.

I already know all those stuff though. Hereās something that I canāt learn from lua.org: Events and built in function made by Roblox studios.
My point is those are provided by Lua.
That is too specific to be a counter-argument. The Developer Hub is for learning the Roblox API. This has always been my point.
Use lua.org for learning Lua
Use developer.roblox.com for learning the Roblox API

Have you seen your posts? You keep objecting to anyone who says lua.org is a good site, by saying that it is no help at all. You deny everyone who says that peaspod and youtubers are a bad resource. Maybe you should reread your post again, because you basically answer your own question and not hear everyoneās opinions.

Yeah it was provided by lua, but my point is that I donāt need to go to lua.org anymore. And I am using Roblox dev hub 
Where will you learn actual Lua, not just API provided by Roblox, because the Developer Hubās goal is to teach the Roblox API not the entire Lua language

I do hear and care about everyoneās opinion, I now have understand that youtubers are a good way to start, but they canāt teach you all of the stuff.
And I was peacefully disagreeing with them. Itās not like I am hating or fighting with them.
I think the issue here is that your entire post was biased. It is anchored to seek more positive responses about youtube videos which is unfair to more reliable suggestions

Why do I need to learn actual lua? When the Roblox api is provided by ROBLOX themselves. I just want to learn every code inside of Roblox studio, and Roblox developer hub does that.
Roblox*
It only teaches you the Roblox API and some of the libraries just happen to be documented. Roblox has also added some of their own functions to the standard libraries.
Roblox didnāt make the table, math, etc. libraries. Those are provided by Lua

Yeah, it doesnt really sound like you care about peopleās opinions on youtubers.
That was an old post.
Alight I am closing this entire discussion as it seems like a war.
It is not a war, all everyone is saying is that instead of using youtube tutorials, you should use lua.org to learn the lua language, and use the API for Roblox specific stuff. You got your answer from the community.

To explain to others what he is saying here more clearly, he means that he doesnāt want to learn the extra Lua stuff that is in the lua.org website and that the API has all the scripting stuff he needs. For example, the API has functions, tables, datastores, events, etc. All the stuff that is included in the Lua website is also in the API (in his words).

Yes, if I already know the lua stuff that is IN Roblox studios, thereās not really a point for learning it.
