I don’t know much about compiler internals, but this sounds like it could complicate a lot of things and not have as many guarantees that the compiler could assume (thus since JS interprets code it could slow down runtime performance). I do

Very nice. Good work. I wrote something similar recently for an internal project. You should look into fetching JSON-LD as well. It’s a pretty neat little format. Once you have JSON LD you can then use jsonld’s various APIs or something lik

If I had to describe it in two words I would say it’s kind of like a mild ‘coconut curry’. Kind of similar to some Thai food I’ve had that was given that exact two word name. I also usually use more or less one to two Serrano peppers usuall

Wow that’s awesome you actually have a jq like implementation. Hmmm since it’s a graph maybe you could go with something like openCypher [0] or GQL [1] (possibly gremlin too) or maybe you could even query it with GraphQL (although GraphQL o

Excellent work I have actually used another GraphQL to GraphViz program before, but I don’t believe it allowed me to manipulate and output manipulated data. This is really awesome though. I’ll have to give it a try next time I need to graph

This comment is mainly for the OP but I really enjoyed your reply. I’m currently reading A Programmer’s Introduction to Mathematics by Jeremy Khun which is absolutely phenomenal so far. But he gives the same advice as above. He states that

I’m not sure. I find this in people that say JavaScript is better than TypeScript. Most people that learn TypeScript or Flow learn to love it even more than JavaScript once they get over the initial hurdles. Why? It’s more self documenting.

I think your confusion lies in how you are supposed to give this information to the backend with a simple cursor. The cursor can be whatever you want it to be and used however you decide to do your query. Your cursor is an opaque string usu

Well I’m certainly no expert on this, but I would guess due to the previous comment the field is possibly too immature at the moment to have as much mathematical certainty as you might find with other methods and fields of mathematics. I re
