Thank you! Imagine everything we like about Python, remove some warts, make it functional. It should feel familiar and appealing to a Python programmer.
- eternalban 4y agoBased on above it seems you want to test the hypothesis that 'there is a python-like functional language in the space of FP'. Is there anything ~technical you can share beyond desires and disappointments that leads you to believe this is a reasonable hypothesis?
- bslatkin 4y agoI've got a working interpreter and compiler for the initial language. I've had a few people take it for a spin and they were able to rapidly learn it and start contributing, despite having expressed frustration in trying FP languages in the past. All anecdotes for now!
- eternalban 4y agoAh, you already have it. Now we're all intrigued! Looking forward to the public release.
- ch4s3 4y agoI'm pretty deep in on Elixir, but I'd be quite interested to take a look.
