How to convert Lua to Go
- 1. Paste your Lua code into the left editor above. Whole files work — not just snippets.
- 2. Confirm the languages. Source is set to Lua and target to Go. Open Advanced to preserve comments or switch to the advanced model.
- 3. Click Convert and copy the Go result, or run it in the compiler to confirm it behaves.
Why convert Lua to Go?
Teams port Lua to Go when migrating a codebase, sharing logic across services, or learning how a familiar program maps onto a new language. Doing it by hand is slow and error-prone — subtle differences in syntax, typing, and standard libraries are easy to miss. Port My Code handles the mechanical translation so you can focus on reviewing the result.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Lua to Go converter free?
Yes. You can convert Lua to Go for free with rate-limited usage. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited conversions, the built-in compiler, and the advanced model.
Will the converted Go code actually run?
Port My Code produces idiomatic Go using standard libraries and correct types. For anything non-trivial, review the output and run it in the compiler before shipping.
Can I convert a whole file, not just a snippet?
Yes — paste as much Lua as you like. Free requests have a size limit; Pro removes it.
