Project: Inventory Item

Part of the Introduction To Luau section of Coddy's Lua journey — lesson 63 of 73.

Challenge

Easy

Start the inventory project by defining its core type and two items.

Declare a generic type alias Item<T> with the fields id: number, name: string and data: T.
Create sword of type Item<{damage: number}> with id = 1, name = "Iron Sword" and data = {damage = 25}.
Create potion of type Item<{heal: number}> with id = 2, name = "Health Potion" and data = {heal = 40}.

Then print, each on its own line:

sword.id
sword.name
sword.data.damage
potion.id
potion.name
potion.data.heal
