I just finished up a TLS wrapper for Lua [1] and I have used it with Lua
coroutines [2] to handle event-driven servers [3].

I guess. I tend to write the main application in Lua and use C for
wrapping up libraries or for speed (in my case, mostly wrapping up
libraries). I also create an executable that embeds Lua plus all the
modules required for the program to run included. I have no opinion on the
GUI part as I don't write those types of programs.

[1] https://github.com/spc476/lua-conmanorg/blob/master/src/tls.c
but not yet available via LuaRocks. Soon though ...
[2] Again, I need to publish this code ... sigh.
[3] I do a similar thing at work---use Lua with extensive coroutine
support to handle SIP processing.
