For those of us unaware of what the Self programming language is/was, what things did you find inspiring that you are using in this framework?
- zaiste 6y agoI'd like to tightly combine a semi-visual programming editor, the tooling and the runtime/infrastructure into one «thing» as shown in this video [1]. You write a bit of code, you drag and drop another bit, and almost instantly it becomes «online» - the compilation / the deployment process are somehow hidden and the configuration is minimal. It just works, so you can focus on solving the actual business needs of your application - but that's a long term vision... ;) I must mention DarkLang [2] that seems to have a similar goal, but a different approach: Kretes builds on top of VS Code, and uses one of the most popular programming languages while DarkLang builds not only their editor from scratch, but they also introduced a new programming language. I find their project ambitious and inspiring - a potential game changer imho [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ox5P7QyL774 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ox5P7QyL774 [2]: https://darklang.com/ https://darklang.com/
