Well, let's face it: There's only one compiler actively maintained. And its license is MIT!
NB: written in Dylan itself!
This even has an IDE (on Windows only), but has some problems with error reporting, producing too much output while compiling and a limited set of libraries.
The only way to improve that is to try it out, and contribute libraries!
I'm happy to look into compiler bugs - that is something I'm used to do over the last years ;)
- donald_draper 15y agoGiven the rather small community size (from what I know), wouldn't it be the best survival technique to port the compiler to JVM, to have at least some usable real world libraries at hand ? I can hardly imagine anyone starting to use a complex typed system like that without reliable and proven libraries from the real world. It just wouldn't be worth the effort of playing around with it.
