Download a random exe off the internet... Nope.
- dominex 4mo agoEverything starts from random. Bro! Even Python, Javascript and other started randomly.
- ifh-hn 4mo agoYeah but I can look at the code. Where's the code for you exe? The GH repo has none that I can see, just documentation and a link pointing to an exe.
- dominex 4mo agoAlso fair criticism. Right now the repo structure makes that unclear, and I need to fix that. I’ll make the runtime/source repo much more visible from the docs/download page so the EXE isn’t presented without a clear path to the underlying code.
- jones1618 4mo agoAlso, the repo doesn't say what it is good for or provide a preview of the syntax beyond show("hello world"). How about putting all that "learn" and "getting started" HTML on a website? Lastly, there's almost no reason these days for not compiling any reasonably small language into WebAssembly and hosting an online REPL for it. Let people "try before they buy" even if "buying" it is free but requires you to download (and trust) an EXE.
