If it is so much better and easier to read than regex, why not show any examples? Even the examples page is void of any examples.

- RenRav 7y agohttps://gitlab.com/rosie-pattern-language/rosie/blob/master/extra/examples/README.md https://gitlab.com/rosie-pattern-language/rosie/blob/master/... Yeah I thought the same, found this in the repo though.
- alecthomas 7y agoThat should be the front page...
- tom_mellior 7y agoYeah. This (linked from the examples page) is OK: https://gitlab.com/rosie-pattern-language/rosie/blob/master/rpl/date.rpl https://gitlab.com/rosie-pattern-language/rosie/blob/master/... ... except for the terrible color scheme. The comments on a red background make this look like a diff.
- jackric 7y agoA canonical regex pattern vs Rosie pattern should be front and center on the landing page. I want to immediately judge whether it's worth my time to read more.
- HelloNurse 7y agoI need to scroll about halfway through the reference documentation page to see what appears to be pattern-related syntax. Starting with a module system is really strange.
- celticmusic 7y agoI came to make this exact comment, lmao. And it sounds like I went through the exact same process too.
