I’ve been trying to get luarocks to work on windows, and all it gives is cryptic gcc errors.
How does pip manage to work on most platforms without issues?

If you’re getting gcc errors it sounds like the package you’re trying to install contains some c/c++ stuff that needs compiling.
A lot of python packages that rely on things written in c/c++ ship those precompiled, which might account for why it feels easier for you.
