What are some really good libraries I should be using?

[Em...]

I use Love and socket rn, what do you use?

(Not a support question. Just wondering)

I've used a little of OpenResty for a project in the past

Some that I find myself using constantly...

• Inspect - Used to dump tables as human readable, well-formatted output (great for debugging) https://github.com/kikito/inspect.lua
• classic - great little class system. found in a LOT of projects https://github.com/rxi/classic
• tinyYaml - great little yaml parser (only supports a subset, but does great) https://github.com/peposso/lua-tinyyaml
• lua-toml - useful toml parser https://github.com/jonstoler/lua-toml
• Penlight - lots of stuff, it's effectively an extension for functional programming and better "application" functionality https://github.com/lunarmodules/Penlight
