> the instructions on both the website and book are fairly vague on installing and using Lua.

I'm sorry the website was not clear to you.
Did you click on "get started" in the main page?
This leads you to "Installing":
	https://www.lua.org/start.html#installing

The text there says
	Just download it and follow the instructions in the package.
where "instructions" is a link to the README at
	https://www.lua.org/manual/5.3/readme.html
and this contains complete instructions to build and install.

Perhaps the section "Installing" in "Getting started" misled you.

All feedback on the site is welcome.
Thanks.
