Do i need to learn lua before learning löve? Or can I learn it both at the same time?

Then again, roblox is full of useless things that can't be used outside of it, so i'd rather caution others to stay away from roblox, since they might learn crutches they can't let go of... just my opinion of course.

But yes, you should have a basic knowledge on how logic works, then how programming works, then how lua works, and then how Löve works, before you could code a game in it.

No Man. Say Whaaaaat?

I mean, specifically and directly. Löve doesn't have the same structures as roblox, so it is literally useless to learn all that if you're going to code with Löve anyway.

Worse yet, it might confuse beginners, them expecting those to be part of lua proper, and not just something that roblox added. (The same is true, of course, for löve's stuff, but again, the topic isn't "does it make sense to learn löve if i want to code in roblox")

Edit: Pgimeno's right, löve contains the additions in the love table at least; roblox to my knowledge does nothing of the sort.

Btw, i checked out your site, and initially thought it was one of those virus infested domain squatting sites... no offense but that gigantic blob of text on the main page along with the design didn't fill me with trust

It's easy to identify what's exclusive of Löve. Everything Löve adds to Lua has a 'love' prefix.
