- Fellshard 8y agoRight, the projection part is clear. The question was one of diffs, reviews, etc. What does a diff look like when projected between languages? Can you still feasibly use a line-based diff format, or do you have to account for transforming syntax structure? Do you just try to diff the projections instead? Lots of interesting things to try out.
