Re: Web hosting

Sailor[1] is a framework compatible with different web servers, nginx (openresty) included and also Xavante, a pure Lua web server.

Here's a guide on how to deploy it to heroku: https://gist.github.com/paulcuth/5cffe9f4ed310dc0a49d

There is a mod_lua for Apache HTTP Server, that in theory could be used to generate pages. Unfortunately it never got as popular as PHP. Last I checked (years ago) it wasn't well documented, and was more intended for configuring Apache itself, but it could do what you want.
