Luau

Using Luau in Kythia Workspace.

Kythia Workspace provides an automated, seamlessly integrated Luau environment without the need for manual system configurations.

Installing

Go to Runtimes -> Luau

Select your desired version from the dropdown menu and click Install

Kythia will download the official Luau binaries directly to your local environment.

Environment & PATH

Kythia automatically manages the system environment for you. When you activate a specific version of Luau via the UI, Kythia injects its executable directory directly into your current terminal session's PATH.

This means you can immediately open a terminal within Kythia and run the standard commands (like luau) without conflicts or having to restart your computer.

Installation Directory

Your installed Luau versions are stored safely at:

C:\kythia\runtimes\luau\{version}\

Version Management

You can install multiple versions of Luau simultaneously. The Kythia UI allows you to instantly hot-swap between versions for your current workspace session. Simply click the dropdown menu on the Luau panel, choose a different version, and your terminal environment will update dynamically!
