Course using F#: Write your own tiny programming system(s)

  Compiler of a small Scala subset

Looks interesting.

Once I saw it's a Czech university course using F#, I knew Tomáš Petříček would be the lecturer :)

A couple years back, I wrote a compiler of tiny-ish scala subset in F# (the code is imperative, though)[1]

There seems to be a lot of confusion for this, unfortunately.

Some more information can be found at https://github.com/tpetricek/Teaching (specifically, https://github.com/tpetricek/Teaching/tree/master/2023/tiny-...). The course is currently ongoing. The videos and PDFs seem to be down, but I wouldn't be surprised if that's just because of hacker news overloading things.

Seems neat, from the slides and demos.

  dotfiles (by williamcotton)

I started down this path sometime last year with Crafting Interpreters and I’ve gotten obsessed with this entire world since. I wrote a little language [0] using Python Lex Yacc a couple of months ago at work because I wanted an awk-like way to quickly make graphs/charts from the CLI. Then I wrote a parser-as-a-type in TypeScript [1] for the same grammar.

My plan was to take a look at OCaml for future tinkerings with parsers, but man, F# is already looking very familiar between TypeScript and Lex/Yacc-like things.

Thanks for this post, I think I might have a new favorite language in the oven!

Also take a look at Fabulous[1]. The code with it looks nicer than Avalonia.FuncUI.
