Lua IDE is a full Lua programming IDE and code editor for Android, providing a complete Linux-based integrated development environment directly on your mobile device. Write, edit, run, compile, debug, and manage Lua applications and scripts entirely on your phone or tablet ā fully offline, no internet connection required.
This app is a real IDE, not a simulator or lightweight editor. It includes core development tools, compilers, package managers, and a terminal-based Linux system, making it suitable for real-world development workflows on Android.
Complete Lua & Linux Integrated Development Environment :---
Lua IDE includes a full Linux environment with a powerful Zsh shell (Powerlevel10k theme). Use standard Linux command-line tools to manage files, run programs, install dependencies, compile code, and automate workflows just like on a desktop Linux system.
