Using Lua in Clion
Answered
Hi there, since I'm new to Clion, I'm wondering why the Lua extension does not show when I want to create a new project. It does show however in IntelliJ IDEA.
I'm getting a little bit confused. Wasn't Lua influenced by the C language? Why is it under Java, as it is nothing compare to that? Also, are there any chances to have it under Clion as well?
Thank you kindly!

Hi, @dsm.ide!
There is a Lua plugin which can be used in CLion. Is it suitable for you?
Yes it is, but only if I embedded it in C/C++ code. On the other hand, you can install the same plugin in IntelliJ IDEA. Only then you can create plain projects.
I'm okay with that, but I expected it to be under Clion.
@Anna-Falevskaya,
Any chance for a dedicate Lua IDE from JetBrains?
It would be amazing to have such tool as the IDE world of Lua is really dull.
