Lua is also used for:

- AwesomeWM configuration

- Wireshark dissectors

- Nmap scripting

[mdaniel → GrumpySloth]

And OpenResty extensions (and sometimes configuration of the built-in ones), as one can see in use by the nginx kubernetes ingress controller

IIRC the Kong api gateway uses it in a similar way

There's a Lua interpreter in Redis, too
