- nikhilsimha 8y agoThis is the most constructive comment thread on HN in a long time!
- Labo333 8y agoI discovered Sketch on the OCaml forum just after I finished the alpha version of domical. I'll publish domical after some issues coming from iodide are corrected. Sketch is really awesome, and serves different purposes. Domical is just an interpreter for the iodide notebooks, which are designed to be portable and execute all kind of languages: js, python (those crazy folks compiled the full interpreter and f numpy in WASM) and now OCaml. I can see that sketch has really a lot more features. A key feature of iodide is its simplicity and portability: the whole notebook is written in a readable format looking like markdown and called jsmd. Take a look at the source code of the page to better understand. So definitely we have a lot to share on our respective projects, even if I am not one of the main contributors of iodide (I just did the OCaml part). If you want to continue this discussion, my email is on my homepage :)
