This is exciting. I've been experimenting with languages to replace JS with, and have only liked Rapydscript so far (due to an existing familiarity with Python). Syntactically, I see some inspiration in Spider from both Python and Go. As this is still in alpha stages, any chance you'll remove the semicolons? That would push the syntax into "beautiful" realm for me.

This is definitely possible. Can you open an issue in GitHub?

  I'm sure you are well aware of this, but just to be safe: Go has more sensible semicolon insertion rules compared to JavaScript, avoiding pretty much all issues JavaScript has with it. Be sure to take a look at it!

    Of course. Swift does this as well BTW.
