I've had college profs say that pbLua is a lower barrier to
entry for first time robotics programmers than Java, for
whatever reason.

pbLua provides you with a console interface, text only. Cut
from your editor, paste to the terminal. Primitive, but it
works, is host agnostic, and can run on a smartphone or
tablet that supports Bluetooth and the Serial Port Profile.

Hopefully this is not condescending, but one of the byproducts
of having an opinion is that there is always someone who will
disagree with it. Maturity brings with it the ability to ignore
the contrarians that don't matter, and to pay very close attention
to those that do matter.
