Elixir-Code-Smells VS peridot

My Ph.D. advisor and I are researching code smells in Elixir systems. This work resulted in the Catalog of Elixir-specific code smells, which has already become quite popular among GitHub users. (https://github.com/lucasvegi/Elixir-Code-Smells).

Results can be found in: https://github.com/lucasvegi/Elixir-Code-Smells

Catalog of Elixir-specific code smells\ (21 comments)

Generally speaking, code smells are also context-sensitive structures. This means that a smell will not always represent pain in a specific project. It is just a possibility that must be analyzed in each context. It is a warning, not a judgment.

We are interested in knowing Elixir's community opinion about these code smells. Collaborations can be made via GitHub issues (https://github.com/lucasvegi/Elixir-Code-Smells/issues) or Pull Requests in our repo!

I've mostly finished up a preprint of a research paper on Peridot, my programming language! It still needs some work, but I'm happy enough with it to post it. If you have any questions or suggestions don't hesitate to tell me here. I would love feedback :-)

I'm finishing up with Peridot! The research goals of the project are close to being accomplished, so I'll be wrapping up soon. I'm really satisfied with it as a proof-of-concept for the ideas it implements. The last main bit of the project is a research paper I'm writing which details the language and its applications in detail.

Hey all! I've been working on my programming language Peridot for about six months, and it's finally at the point where I can call it an MVP! Peridot is a language in which the compiler backend is implemented in userspace via metaprogramming.

The Peridot MVP is feature-complete! All that's left to do are bugfixes, after which it will be a real, usable language. Here's the major features, in no particular order:

I'm not aware of any current implementations, but I'll be implementing it in my language, Peridot. Unfortunately that won't be for a few months though.

The second was called Konna. AFAIK it’s Finnish for “frog”, but sources seem to disagree? I don’t speak Finnish, I got the word from a Finnish video game. My third and current language is called Peridot. I’m pretty proud of this name, although it’s less searchable than the previous ones. The origin is pretty simple, I was just looking around at gemstones and thought peridot looked neat.

Hey! I'm Peridot's author. Peridot is a language based on two-level type theory which allows for the compiler backend to be written in userspace. The language is really two languages tied together: a logic language, and a dependently typed functional language. The former is built for metaprogramming - high-level optimizers and compilers can be written that translate the latter language into a target language of choice. An in-depth explanation of the language's rationale can be found here.
