Testura.Code VS P

You want to know what will level up your templates, using some c# code generators like Testura.Code

I worked on a state machine framework in another language, and have definitely have found less terse to be pretty good. Typing a few extra characters isn't that bad, especially if it makes some awful bit of evented code easier for someone to understand.

Of the things available open source, I think P-lang is pretty cool: https://github.com/p-org/P/blob/master/Tutorial/1_ClientServ...

Your proposed syntax reminded me of https://p-org.github.io/P/

I’ve gotten a lot of good about TLA+ and the more recent the P language has been really promising lately. It’s got a good pedigree and is being increasingly used as AWS as well.

I tried to use TLA+ but what annoys me the most is the disconnection between the actual implementation and its code. I think the P language has a much better future just because it can generate code that works: https://github.com/p-org/P

It is tough.

My approach when learning new protocols like Raft or Paxos is to implement them in Pluscal (TLA+'s higher-level language) or P (https://github.com/p-org/P). I've found that helps separate the protocol-level concerns from the implementation-level concerns (sockets? wire format?) in a way that reduces the difficulty of learning the protocol.
