Is F# still moving forward? I am tempted to try it but I don’t want to bet on another tool MS may abandon soon like they did with the .NET frameworks.

- munchler 5y agoYes. F# 6 was just released with .NET 6 and Visual Studio 2022. It's an awesome language with a vibrant community. Plus, it's fully open source and cross-platform, so if MS were to abandon it, I think it could carry on anyway.

- runevault 5y agoHere's the blog post JUST for the changes in the newest release. It is surprisingly meaty for being something other than c# https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/whats-new-in-fsharp-6/ https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/whats-new-in-fsharp-6/
- dgellow 5y agoI love how detailed those blog posts are. Always a (very long) delight to read :)
- oaiey 5y agoAnd F# is the single piece of the inner .NET which is truly community driven. And they have a vibrant community.
