With around half a million installs on Visual Studio Code, it is the most popular extension for Lua language support. The language server can be installed for use in Visual Studio Code, NeoVim, and any other clients that support the Language Server Protocol. The language server can be configured using a configuration file. The language server and Visual Studio Code client can be installed from the VS Code Marketplace.
