Totally understandable. My motivation is that I want to reach out to the users as much as possible, doing an extra amount of work if needed. They benefit from cross-platform applications. And I need it to do just once in my programming lang

You're right that as a developer of the language it's quite niche position, however the language is then used by developers to create actual applications and they're affected by this, or rather the users are. It also allows t

A paid developer account would be required by every developer wishing to publish their cross-platform application also on MacOS. Even if it was free it would be an issue because it would require an extra registration and workflow that requi

Yeah, but such concerns are from a long ago and it didn't happen yet. So the best approach is (and has been) to just support the platform until it is not possible anymore and don't be emotional about it. We just know that one (sti

As a creator of a programming language that can compile binaries of any supported platform from any platform it is an unsolveable problem. I can't do the signing as it requires Apple stuff. Not to mention it is unethical to require it

Some time ago I've used a simple algorithm by using 128bit floats for doubles (and 64bit for floats) which seems to work very nicely and is straightforward to implement. It passed the full tests for conversion for 32bit floats and the

Another thing you can do is to publish source code for releases only. By keeping the commits internal you don't have to think hard about what you commit and it allows to have other stuff in your repository that logically belongs there

FTS5 works great. The only issue I had is that the syntax for the queries is quite irregular. Had problems both with understanding it exactly and translating to it from the usual format of space delimited keywords, exact strings in quotes,

Depends on the application. I tend to have a single binary, you just need a language runtime and/or database, rarely some other software. You can script installation of this. I don't see how the containers add a value when you can

Actually it is not that bad. New ideas often require a significant push so people not only get comfortable with it but also start to demand it. Having someone else bigger to do this hard work opens an actual market for it that you can now e

This is not that great idea. Both too little and too much information is bad. I've already experienced it in practice in NetBeans 6+ where there was so much information (not just colors but various types of underlines etc.) that the co

Perhaps bookmarklets could make that possible? It could generate loading of the resources using the SRIs hardcoded directly in the JS contained in the bookmark itself. Or even simpler, use the data: URI for the initial page as a bookmark.

You may want to look at my PNG/DEFLATE implementation: http://public-domain.advel.cz/ It contains various implementations of the compression, from simple uncompresssed to more complex variants and a quite small PNG loa

Languages need to evolve because the needs change over the time. It's either evolving or the users will have to switch to another language eventually. The goal of my language[1] is also to be unchanging after the 1.0 version. However t

Easy embedding is one of the goals of FixScript [1] (my language). It consists of a single C file (and a header). It even includes a JIT while not being gigantic. It also provides a more direct C API which I think is more friendly for embed

It doesn't. I've tried it as an experiment a long time ago but was very unsatisfactory. I've already did some other transpilers to C in the past and can say that it is a terrible compiler target (you'll hit a lot of edge

It is preferred to have syntax additions in the same style, but I do see the need for multiple different styles. Like the mentioned Python-like style. I expect that each of the radically different styles will have their set of token process

The documentation could always improve, what things are you missing or think would be better made simpler? There is no REPL available. I'm not decided if to build one, depends on what it could be useful for? I certainly use Python REPL
