MUD standards

We will preserve the documentation of MUD standards that may get lost (because the original site is breaking down or is already offline) as they are implemented in Mudlet. We may also look into developing some of them in the future.

MUD Mapping Protocol

Lua

Mudlet uses Lua! Learning it is really rewarding - take a look at excellent stuff like the Lua tutorial (has an intro+crash course), Learn Lua in 15 mins, Learning Lua the Hard Way (very rewarding), Programming in Lua (official, but might be hard to follow) and various Lua tutorials.
