Any sources for interactive lua learning?

Question

Hello fellow learners! I am in search for a way to learn lua in a more interactive way. I have done a lot of work with GLUA (for Garry's Mod) and would like to get better wit hthe language. I'm tired of sitting in front of a lua library and using trial and error. Any suggestions?

This is perhaps not what you are after. Anyway, try exercism.io. It takes you from installing and setting the environment and hello world up to reasonably complex programs. Where you find an exercise impossible to complete on your own, you can upload an incomplete or incorrect solution and get access to read others' solutions to get ideas.

My understanding with interactive learning environments is, they are complex to setup and, engage the learner constantly. Exercise.io strikes a balance by deferring the interaction part to people to people communication.

I've done the exercises for clojure and Java. So, speaking from that experience.
