F# was originally just kind of a passion project that MS insisted get productized to continue development. It's still very much an internal favorite within Microsoft Research and the Bing team, from my understanding.
- pjmlp 4y agoNowadays most of those folks are no longer at MSR, Don Syme has moved into Github and I doubt they are into F#.
- JaggerJo 4y agoDon is still working on F#. The F# team at MS now is bigger than is was years ago. People from different companies and the community are collaborating on compiler and language features. F# is beyond microsoft, a lot of early adopters are still there.
- pjmlp 4y agoStand corrected on that one. What are the fruits of that increased team on the VS, VS4Mac and VSCode tooling, and .NET SDKs?
