Light Table is a great project, but it's all in closurescript -.- This is a big obstacle to people wanting to edit/customize/write their own plugins

- swah 13y agoAnd this one is all in Coffeescript... so there is still a niche for an editor in Javascript!

- tensor 13y agoIt's really sad that learning a new language is considered "a big obstacle." An average programmer should be able to pick up nearly any new computing language quite easily.
- jbeja 13y agoDepends, is not like some who have code in a Imperative, OOP paradigm, is gonna learn a functional language in no time.
- Morgawr 13y agoThe language itself is actually very simple and writing plugins for lighttable is the opposite of complex, there are amazing tutorials floating around the web. The whole process is simply just manipulating sets of data, it's all about adding and removing triggers. This said, you can also write lighttable plugins in javascript.
