  • proposal-pattern-matching

    Pattern matching syntax for ECMAScript

  • Assuming there's no way to make you happy with that proposal, what about the proposal for pattern matching? While I understand the desire not to pollute the language with a bunch of eye candy, I also don't think IIFEs are particularly welcome in a project that favors readability, and any other tool I can think of for solving this problem ultimately leads to some kind of mutability that makes code harder to reason about.

  • picoc

    A very small C interpreter

  • Can we please cut the bullshit. By that logic no language is compiled. Because behold, a C interpreter: https://github.com/jpoirier/picoc

  • fp-ts

    Functional programming in TypeScript

  • Here's an example I've quickly written to prove it's true, but you'd need to look at the source code of fp-ts for the implementation.
