Differences

The following are some key differences between Lua and Rust.

Characteristic	Lua	Rust
Syntax	Lua has a simple and flexible syntax that is easy to learn and use.	Rust has a more complex syntax than Lua, but it is designed to be safe and efficient.
Paradigm	Lua is a multi-paradigm language that supports procedural, functional, and object-oriented programming.	Rust is a multi-paradigm language that supports functional and imperative programming, with a focus on safety and concurrency.
Typing	Lua is dynamically typed, which means that variable types are determined at runtime.	Rust is statically typed, which means that variable types are determined at compile time.
Performance	Lua is known for its fast performance and low memory usage.	Rust is designed for high performance and low-level control, making it a good choice for systems programming.
Libraries and frameworks	Lua has a small standard library, but there are many third-party libraries and frameworks available.	Rust has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, with a focus on safety and performance.
Community and support	Lua has a small but dedicated community, with active development and support.	Rust has a growing community, with active development and support from Mozilla and other organizations.
Learning curve	Lua has a relatively low learning curve, with simple syntax and a small standard library.	Rust has a steeper learning curve than Lua, due to its complex syntax and focus on safety and performance.
