StyLua is a deterministic, opinionated code formatter for Lua and its dialects (Lua 5.1-5.4, LuaJIT, Luau, CfxLua), written in Rust and built on the full-moon parser. It parses code and reprints it from scratch to enforce a consistent style, similar to Prettier.

Use cases

  • format lua code
  • enforce consistent lua code style
  • format luau scripts for roblox
  • add lua formatting to ci pipeline
  • set up pre-commit hook for lua formatting
  • auto-format lua files in editor

When to choose

  • you write Lua or Luau and want Prettier-like deterministic formatting
  • you need CI or pre-commit integration for Lua style enforcement
  • you work across multiple Lua dialects including LuaJIT and FiveM

When to avoid

  • you need a configurable formatter with many style presets rather than an opinionated one
  • your project is not Lua-based
