As such, it is neither an acronym nor an abbreviation, but a noun. More specifically, "Lua" is a name, the name of the Earth's moon and the name of the language. Like most names, it should be written in lower case with an initial capital, that is, "Lua". Please do not write it as "LUA", which is both ugly and confusing, because then it becomes an acronym with different meanings for different people. So, please, write "Lua" right! | |

| Jun 5, 2016 at 14:19 | comment | added | Russell McMahon | @OlinLathrop If people use terms such as "LM324", "BC337", 1N4148 it is generally accepted that they are well enough known that inclusion of opamp, bipolar low power NPN transistor and silicon small signal diode, respectively is not required for understanding. | The ESP8266 family is a range of modules with WiFi + processor in a single IC and a companion memory for program. These are very very well known and something extremely worth knowing about if you have not met them. While not (yet) quite as ubiquitous as eg an LM324 they are quite possibly the most common "IOT" WiFi interface overall. | |

| Jun 5, 2016 at 13:58 | comment | added | Olin Lathrop | No, I'm not going to look up what a ESP8266 is to answer a question here. Besides, from the title this is clearly a opinion-based question, and it seems is about the use of electronic device rather than their design. Not only that, but to erase any doubt, you mention "arduino". | |
