Yeah, really looking forward to see this project keeps growing! I really hope we can use it in projects soon. Implementing runtime for Elixir in JavaScript is quite challenging IMO. Kudos for Dockyard trying to tackle this.

When I see a Phoenix post, I upvote. It's so great in terms of almost everything - simple, productive, powerful, and fast. If you're a web developer, go try it out if you haven't. I might be too greedy, but if there could be

Because class is neither simple nor mandatory. And people have to do massive meaningless things like swapping between class and function components every day, because of the introduction and elimination of states.

What if there’s no class in the language? The ‘original React’ as you mentioned for example, was modeled in standard ML. There’s no class in the language and it is okay to model the state in function.

Phoenix is amazing. Having shallow experience in Rails, I found I can be productive in day 1. It just works, and solid, and fast. Yet there are more brilliant things ahead like OTP and LiveView. There are many other outstanding functional l

I'm fine to tweak some Elisp code but not fully enjoy it as Scheme or Common Lisp. It's really an awkward language despite the fact it's a Lisp, and I really like Lisp. Oh, how I wish it would be completely re-written with ot

Swift is missing a lot of features, and that's why you can see a lot of type operators and type-level programming in some TypeScript code. For example, there is no Higher-Kind type support in TypeScript, but with some primitives from T

Zoom's hidden doctrine "convenience over privacy" works really well. They assume their user wouldn't care too much about security and privacy, and sadly, for the vast majority, they assumed correct.

In React, they're basically all JavaScript. Even for JSX people can imagine themselves as compilers, and can easily write down the JavaScript output by hand - it's totally predictable. It's really a super thin layer of DSL wi

Wow, this is nice. I hope there are more events and platforms like this. Let's face it, most of the Olympic games are boring. If we can model things in the virtual world good enough, the Roman-style arena games would be more popular th

Namespace and lexical scoping can both solve the long variable name issue. If a language have none like Emacs Lisp or CSS, the issue happens. For example, when there was no namespace for JavaScript, people can easily simulate modules/n

Yes but for dynamically scoped languages you have to name it even longer. Because in Scheme there are safe variables in closures so it can just named as <already-very-long-function-name>, while in Emacs Lisp it's literally leakin

It's dynamic scoping, as appose to lexical scoping. With the dynamic scoping, the environment of invocation becomes the caller's environment, while with the lexical scoping the environment was tied to the scope or original definit

I guess you mean "easy" instead of "simple". "Simple" is very subjective and could be hard to achieve (so is "easy" though). In many objective aspects Lisp is much simpler than "professional"
