BorrowScript VS awesome-typescript-derived-languages

You might be looking for something like https://github.com/alshdavid/BorrowScript

I think AssemblyScript is the best example.

Adding the borrow checker is quite invasive though. This guy is trying https://github.com/alshdavid/BorrowScript.

I think it's a kind of fun constraint that experienced and bored devs like to challenge themselves with - the borrow checker. The latest obsession. You absolutely don't need a borrow checker, just like you didn't need everything to be functional programming, but it's intellectually stimulating.

Sounds like BorrowScript, which is TypeScript syntax, a Rust borrow checker, and Go-like coroutines. It's designed for wasm and web api targets. (not compatible with TypeScript though)

I asked how to implement a "borrow checker" in JavaScript in my initial attempts (I've learned a decent amount since), which led me to randomly finding BorrowScript that seems to have another implementation I think, so going to be taking a deeper look there for inspiration as well. But if one could explain the steps of the algorithm, and how it integrates/relates with the type inference process, that would be of great use. Not for learning how to use Rust, but to learn how this aspect of its compiler works.

Yeah, AssemblyScript is a key WASM language variant - I made a list of some of the other TypeScript-like implementations last year. Static TypeScript does something similar in order to run inside web pages.

Here is a listing of some TypeScript derived languages: https://github.com/orta/awesome-typescript-derived-languages

Of those, Static TypeScript has been of particular interest to me, but it seems either out of date, or the info available is.
