the article is a bit of a cheap shot against Typescript. They have had async in the roadmap the last 6 months at least (and the public project is only about 10 months old).
IIRC, async is the next big feature on the roadmap, and going to be in before v1.0 (v0.9, released 2 months ago, added generics)
given the pace of development, typescript v1 should be done in 6 months or less.
- chongli 13y agoI don't see how that makes it a cheap shot. Everyone is drawing from the same pool of ideas that were discovered decades ago. Could you be more specific?
- novaleaf 13y agotypescript is very popular for how young it is. so given that the thing is still a very young, alpha product, saying that they are neglecting feature X is a bit too much. better to just not even mention it.
- chongli 13y agoYeah, the rhetoric at the beginning is a bunch of cheap shots at different languages. Having said that, it is clearly separated from the rest of the post by the line: Enough rhetoric, let's see how core.async works in practice. As for language features? core.async is not a feature of Clojure/ClojureScript; it's merely a library.
