- tlarkworthy 13y agowhich spec are you working off? I am really interested in hearing what you think is not powerful enough. The meta-schema unioned all the types together. I find that annoying, but its drafted to be fixed in v5 anything else?
- boronine 13y agoWhat do you think about Teleport [0]? It is more like an actual type system (with dependent types!), with type signatures that get encoded in JSON. In Python (the only functioning implementation thus far), a real definition looks something like this [1]. Rather than providing a big fixed set of types, Teleport provides just the basics and allows you to define your own types, be it JSON-encoded primitives or fancy deeply nested structures. Since my partner left to work on something else, work on Cosmic slowed down, but I'm successfully using Teleport at my day job and planning a new release soon, along with a complete JavaScript port.
