I used to use Lua and later LuaJIT in Lumix Engine. I switched to Luau because of its type system. However, it's apparent it was not meant to be used outside Roblox, as it has many rough corners. The documentation is not great, and the community is basically nonexistent - I got zero results when searching for any issues I encountered. Also, it's huge compared to Lua or LuaJIT, causing my project to compile 7x slower. The API is not great (e.g., an async API that blocks, using STL in the API, leaking STL headers). I encounter bugs with analysis/LSP often. Overall, I consider moving away from it.
