Classes of scripting on Mondays (LSL) and Wednesdays (Lua)
I'm excited to announce the launch of three new scripting class series designed to expand your skills and creativity in Second Life! Whether you're interested in integrating with external tools or diving into the future of scripting with SLua, there's something here for you.


* Starting: March 31st and April 2nd


* Time: 09:00am - 10:30am SLT
Starting on September 8th. For more information, contact the instructor Suzanna (suzannalinn) or the teaching assistant Ali (sungali).


* Level: intermediate


* Teacher assistant: Ali (sungali)
==== LSL - Web Server and MOAP (6 classes) ====


* Location: In-world location: [http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Caledon%20Oxbridge/72/140/29 map to Caledon Oxbridge]
* Dates: September 8th - September 24th


* Days: Mondays and Wednesdays


==== Scripting in LSL on Mondays (09:00 - 10:30 SLT) ====
* Time: 11:00am - 12:30pm SLT


Starting with an intermediate level and progressing to an advanced level.
* Level: advanced LSL


A new class is introduced each week. The topic of the class will be announced the week before.
* Teachers: Suzanna (suzannalinn) & Ali (sungali)


* Format: text-only


==== Scripting in SLua on Wednesdays (09:00 - 10:30 SLT) ====
* Required: play media enabled


Lua has arrived on the beta grid! We will begin learning it from the basics and gradually progress to an intermediate-to-advanced level.
* In-world location: Caledon Oxbridge (Main Lecture Hall) [http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Caledon%20Oxbridge/72/140/29 map to Caledon Oxbridge]


Our goal is to learn to script in Lua everything we can currently script in LSL, and more, before Lua reaches the main grid.
We will learn advanced topics of handling HTTP requests, serving web pages directly from in-world objects, and leveraging MOAP to display web content on a prim surface.
This will open up a myriad of possibilities for creators, from interactive displays and dynamic in-world advertising to complex web-based applications that integrate seamlessly with Second Life.


No prior knowledge of Lua is required to join the classes, but an intermediate level of LSL is necessary.


Classes are at Caledon (main grid), practices are at the SLua regions (beta grid).
==== SLua - Basics (12 classes + 12 practices) ====


* Dates: October 1st - December 19th


= Introducing Lua: The New Scripting Language for SL =
* Day: Wednesdays (theory) and Fridays (practices)


I am compiling information about Lua and LuaSL to give you an overview of their features and functionalities:
* Time: 11:00am - 12:30pm SLT
{{KBcaution|[[User:SuzannaLinn_Resident/Lua | Introducing Lua index page]]}}


* Level: beginner/intermediate in LSL, no prior SLua knowledge needed


I will begin a series of in-world classes on LuaSL as soon as it becomes available in the Beta Grid. These classes will be oriented to scripters who primarily use LSL, and they will cover not only Lua but also introduce new programming concepts that are currently absent in LSL.
* Teachers: Suzanna (suzannalinn) & Ali (sungali)


Once Lua is launched on the Main Grid, I will repeat the same series of classes, allowing you to choose the moment to start your learning journey.
* Format: text-only


For advanced scripters who have a solid understanding of other programming languages and don't require detailed classes, I will host script meetings and Q&A sessions, to exchange ideas and ask questions.
* Required: access to the Beta Grid
 
* In-world location:
** main grid (Wednesdays): Builders Breweery (Sky Classroom) [https://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Builders%20Brewery/59/73/607 map to Builders Brewery]
** beta grid (Fridays): SLua Yardang (SLua Class Study Area) [secondlife://Aditi/secondlife/SLua%20Yardang/157/8/23 link to SLua Class]
 
SLua is the future of scripting in Second Life—and it's already live on the Beta Grid!
This series starts from the ground up and is designed to get you comfortable with the new Lua-based scripting system.
 
 
==== SLua - Advanced (12 classes + 12 practices) ====
 
* Dates: September 29th - December 18th
 
* Day: Mondays (theory) and Thursdays (practice)
 
* Time: 11:00am - 12:30pm SLT
 
* Level: intermediate in LSL, enough knowledge of SLua to rewrite LSL scripts
 
* Teachers: Suzanna (suzannalinn) & Ali (sungali)
 
* Format: text-only
 
* Required: access to the Beta Grid
 
* In-world location:
** main grid (Mondays): Caledon Oxbridge (Main Lecture Hall) [http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Caledon%20Oxbridge/72/140/29 map to Caledon Oxbridge]

About me

Hi, I'm Suzanna, a teacher of scripting in-world, and a programmer in real life.


Classes

I'm excited to announce the launch of three new scripting class series designed to expand your skills and creativity in Second Life! Whether you're interested in integrating with external tools or diving into the future of scripting with SLua, there's something here for you.


Starting on September 8th. For more information, contact the instructor Suzanna (suzannalinn) or the teaching assistant Ali (sungali).


LSL - Web Server and MOAP (6 classes)

  • Dates: September 8th - September 24th
  • Days: Mondays and Wednesdays
  • Time: 11:00am - 12:30pm SLT
  • Level: advanced LSL
  • Teachers: Suzanna (suzannalinn) & Ali (sungali)
  • Format: text-only
  • Required: play media enabled

We will learn advanced topics of handling HTTP requests, serving web pages directly from in-world objects, and leveraging MOAP to display web content on a prim surface. This will open up a myriad of possibilities for creators, from interactive displays and dynamic in-world advertising to complex web-based applications that integrate seamlessly with Second Life.


SLua - Basics (12 classes + 12 practices)

  • Dates: October 1st - December 19th
  • Day: Wednesdays (theory) and Fridays (practices)
  • Time: 11:00am - 12:30pm SLT
  • Level: beginner/intermediate in LSL, no prior SLua knowledge needed
  • Teachers: Suzanna (suzannalinn) & Ali (sungali)
  • Format: text-only
  • Required: access to the Beta Grid

SLua is the future of scripting in Second Life—and it's already live on the Beta Grid! This series starts from the ground up and is designed to get you comfortable with the new Lua-based scripting system.


SLua - Advanced (12 classes + 12 practices)

  • Dates: September 29th - December 18th
  • Day: Mondays (theory) and Thursdays (practice)
  • Time: 11:00am - 12:30pm SLT
  • Level: intermediate in LSL, enough knowledge of SLua to rewrite LSL scripts
  • Teachers: Suzanna (suzannalinn) & Ali (sungali)
  • Format: text-only
  • Required: access to the Beta Grid

Already scripting in SLua? This advanced series unlocks powerful features and techniques that go far beyond what’s possible with LSL.


Study Groups

  • Day: all Saturdays
  • Time: 11:00am - 12:30pm SLT
  • Level: all levels
  • Teachers: Suzanna (suzannalinn) & Ali (sungali)
  • Format: text-only
  • Required: access to the Beta Grid for SLua

Come with your questions, practices and projects, to chat about anything scripting related.


SLua: The New Scripting Language for SL

I'm writing an SLua guide with an overview of Lua, details on how to transition form LSL to SLua, examples and a transpiler LSL to SLua:
