Are you asking what I'd use if I were building Viaweb today? The answer to that is probably Arc, though that says more about me than about currently available technologies.
- devin 14y agoWould you recommend Arc to modern startups in general?
- pg 14y agoNo, I don't think so, not in its current state.
- heretohelp 14y agoAre there any Lisps you would recommend (other than Clojure)? (Or languages?)
- pg 14y agoClojure is probably the best bet. I don't know much about it but lots of people seem to use it, and any decent Lisp that lots of people use is probably a good bet.
- abqarc 14y agoWhy not? Have you used a language other than Arc to write a web app recently? If writing web apps in other languages isn't still painful where have other languages/frameworks caught up?
- pg 14y agoIt's still missing some things that most people take for granted.
- daeken 14y agoI've kept an eye on Arc for years, with my 100-year language glasses on. How do you feel about Arc as the 100-year language as described in your essay? It's been 9 years since the essay; any plans for a followup, or do you feel that it's held up over time?
