Best way to learn it is to use it. I think picking a small task you'd like it to do as a great start and will keep you more interested. You can also download user scenarios and see examples of what they've done. Most AI language models can generate the code now, just makes sure you add a few detail level things to your query like the URL of the documentation (https://commandlua.github.io/).

Further to the above, I have asked Claude - to design (using code from the above URL only) a Lua course for me (no prior knowledge whatsoever) focused on CMO. It started by asking if I have some prior knowledge of excel functions (which I do) and then started teaching step by step in a really enjoyable fashion.
