it looks really good, the sort of trully new generation of programming languages we need, bringing new constructs and solutions for the new world challenges and solutions as the previous abstractions are already falling short.
I wish it would be clear on which platforms does it run, because for its description I can only read about python's integration, which is great, but not sure whether I could run a "client" on javascript devices or C embedded and communicate to a Scallop backend that speaks python.
I hope to read more about it the following months

- doctor_eval 5y agoDownload page has platforms: https://scallop-lang.github.io/download.html https://scallop-lang.github.io/download.html Seems to be MacOS (M1 and x86) and Linux x86.
- nudpiedo 5y agothat's true although that's not a target platform for which it compiles to. Later today I've seen the runtime appears to be written in rust, so it might be possible to port it to many architectures althought at the moment it looks to be a desktop only runtime/embedded library.
