ArithmeticExpressionCompiler VS reason

Well, for my AEC-to-x86 compiler, I provide a ZIP file with the source code (together with the MIT-licenced Duktape, which is necessary for my compiler to work, as the core of it is written in JavaScript, and also the source code of example programs), which I recommend to download. I also provide, for people who are willing to risk getting malware from my computer, a ZIP file containing the compiler executables for various OS-es as well as sources and executables of the example programs (but not the source code of Duktape and the part of my compiler written in C programming language).

I have made some GAS executable files to be executed on Windows, you can download them here (the EXE files are for Windows): https://github.com/FlatAssembler/ArithmeticExpressionCompiler/raw/master/recursive_HybridSort/RecursiveHybridSortExecutables.zip

Maybe the way I have done that in my web-app, by tokenizing, parsing and then interpreting the string: https://flatassembler.github.io/compiler.html

A thing I have done with my knowledge of assembly language is that I have made a compiler for my programming language that targets x86: https://flatassembler.github.io/compiler.html

And who cares about 8086? Probably not a single modern device has it. The earliest computer I had, running Windows 98, had Intel Celeron processor, which is, from the perspective of an assembly-language programmer, the same as i686 (Intel Pentium Pro). The assembly code that the compiler for my programming language produces will run on all computers you care about, and many so old you do not care: https://flatassembler.github.io/compiler.html

I have used FlatAssembler and GNU Assembler. Those are assemblers that the compiler for my programming language uses to target x86: https://flatassembler.github.io/compiler.html I also have a bit of experience with Microsoft Macro Assembler.

Antivirus software, for some reason, failed to detect the malware. I don't fully understand why. They misdetect a ton of innocent programs as malware (system files necessary for booting, BoringSSL, Motorola's Bluetooth drivers, the compiler for my programming language...), so it is instinctual to think they will detect an actual malware, but apparently that is not what happens.

Hey HN, at Ahrefs we have been working on an online book that hopefully helps React developers get up and running with Melange, an OCaml to JavaScript compiler. You can read more about Melange here: https://melange.re/.

There are still a few chapters that we'd like to add before considering it "complete", but it might be already helpful for some folks out there, that's why we decided to publish it early.

The book uses Reason syntax to implement React components using ReasonReact components. You can read more about both in:

ReScript is "Fast, Simple, Fully Typed JavaScript from the Future". What that means is that ReScript has a lightning fast compiler, an easy to learn JS like syntax, strong static types, with amazing features like pattern matching and variant types. Until 2020 it was called "BuckleScript" and is closely related to ReasonML.

This tracks with how I've seen "normal" languages converge on similar, flawed imitations of better type systems through tools and repurposed syntax. Thank you for confirming.

Do you have any recommendations or warnings regarding general languages which reach in the opposite direction? Reason[1] and F#[2] are both examples: they attach pre-existing ecosystems and compile-for-$PLATFORM tools to OCaml-like typing.

OCaml itself is also intriguing for personal projects. However, I'm worried the "GPL" in its standard library's LGPL license might scare people despite both the linking exception and Jane Street's MIT alternative.

ReasonML purely as a syntax layer on top of OCaml is still being updated and released[1]. Incidentally, I'm one of the maintainers of that project too :-)

With this Melange release, we're hoping to somewhat revive ReasonML and channel some folks back to the community from the perspective of a vertically integrated platform that has seen major investment in the past few years.

Why not use https://reasonml.github.io/ instead? Or just use Typescript?

Quieted down, but I depend on projects with worst graphs:

There is also reasonml for Web development.
