Welcome to the Inspired-Lua.org Wiki !
Here, you can learn "everything" about Lua scripting on the TI-Nspire platform ! Since this is a wiki, you're welcome to contribute ;)

This website is not official but is considered a great source of information.
Its goal is to gather official information (from TI's pdf documentation, mainly) and also to explain things further, with more details and examples.

An overview of the TI-Nspire Lua Scripting API is available here : Overview of the API

News :

  • [June 7th, 2012] : TI-Nspire OS 3.2 is released, with major updates to the Lua API. You can see what's changed here.
  • [February 7th, 2013] : TI-Nspire iPad applications released, which came with OS 3.4, in which the Lua API got updated a bit. You can see what's changed here.
  • [December 10th, 2013] : TI-Nspire OS 3.6 is released, which changed the Lua API a little bit. You can see what's changed here.
  • [June 25th, 2014] : TI-Nspire OS 3.9 is released, with minor changes to the Lua API. You can see what's changed here.
  • [August 25th, 2014] : TI-Nspire for iPad version 3.11 is released, with changes to the Lua API related to BLE features. You can see what's changed here.
  • [March 6th, 2015] : TI-Nspire for iPad version 4.1 is released, with minor changes to the Lua API related to BLE features (Advertisement data, RSSI, timeout for connect procedure).
  • [February 16th, 2016] : TI-Nspire OS 4.2 is released, with major new features to the Lua API related to peripheral I/O (ASI, "Asynchronous Serial Interface") mainly. You can see what's changed here.
  • So far, later OSes (4.3, 4.4, 4.5) have not brought any new/changed features to Lua scripting.
