  • TypeScript

    TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that compiles to clean JavaScript output.

    The cost for this is that programs with type errors must still be specified to have a well-defined semantics. That in turn means that you can't hang useful language features off static types.

    For example, TypeScript explicitly declares as a design goal that they don't use the type system to generate different code:

    Meanwhile in Dart, you can write:

       double d = 1;

  • coalton

    Coalton is an efficient, statically typed functional programming language that supercharges Common Lisp.

  • Appwrite

    Appwrite - The Open Source Firebase alternative introduces iOS support . Appwrite is an open source backend server that helps you build native iOS applications much faster with realtime APIs for authentication, databases, files storage, cloud functions and much more!
