    It would be awesome to develop something abstract and useful for usage as common PL (besides just solving specific problem), but it's really hard to develop a general purpose language (with memory management, mutations, etc.). For example, at my work I built reactive library mostly similar to Rx.js or Bacon.js, but with additional ability to compose different reactive systems on top of each other, so that streams declaration order won't matter and might be deployed separately while being glued at run-time (as long as stream names match). It's all cool, but system would only allow reactive functions (without imperativity and mutable objects), then the whole code would look really ugly and I definitely wouldn't be able to promote it among my colleges ^^, especially regarding how hard people migrate to new paradigms - sorry for complaining 😊.

    I remember hearing about Bacon.js one day and checking out their Getting Started page. In it, they demonstrate a counter using the Bacon event streaming library. This is the demo code:
