Project Springfield: A Cloud Service Built in F#
- pluglus 10y agoI signed up a while back. Still waiting for my credentials...
- ungzd 10y agoIt's because of lazy evaluation.

- nickpeterson 10y agoHah!
- mercurial 10y agoThis joke works better with Haskell.
- dewiz 10y agoThe registration is not functional yet
- KirinDave 10y agoIt feels like Microsoft is starting to get more vocal about pushing F#. Worth noting that Visual Studio/Xamarin for Mac is prominently offering F# for Android and iOS out of the box now as well.
- FrancoDiaz 10y agoJust wish resharper would get on the bandwagon.
- hkon 10y agoIf I just wait a bit longer, more features from F# will be available in C#. Still not making the jump. So close.
- djedipus 10y ago?? Would you be more likely I make the jump if C# had more of F# features or less likely. I wouldn't hold my breath for anything approaching parity.
- hkon 10y agoNope, but pattern matching will be in vNext.
- platz 10y agoIt's not the same thing. C# "Pattern Matching" is little more than destructuring or switch on steroids. However, much like how the compiler assists you when writing subclasseses so that you've implemented all the required methods, real Pattern Matching (F#) gives you the same guarantees from the compiler that you've handled all the possible cases appropriately. This makes real F# pattern matching much more useful than "switch with destructuring" and helps you grow your programs in a safe way. The C# way has all the same problems as the switch statement which gives no feedback about what cases you've handled.

- Rapzid 10y agoF# needs a Phoenix badly.
- somedangedname 10y agoDoes Pheonix have a home page or a repo on github? Searching only turns up job ads in Arizona.
- thijsvandien 10y agoI suppose it refers to a web framework for Elixir: http://www.phoenixframework.org http://www.phoenixframework.org
- Rapzid 10y agoExactly. I was exposed to elixir/phoenix and could not help but think "man, typespecs is the best we get? wish this were F#". But alas, all the momentum and mindshare is being sucked up by elixir/phoenix. If F# could replicate that somehow that would be AMAZING. I don't mean to knock Elixir/Phoenix though. They are very cool and intersting. Erlang/beam is.. interesting. But F#'s tooling is just fantastic.
- Nelkins 10y agohttps://suave.io/ https://suave.io/ seems like a reasonable contender.
- pjmlp 10y agoThe comments describing the internal politics between DevTools and WindowsDev are also interesting to read.
