FYI, it would not be accurate to say that "The Flow people moved on to ReScript".

Flow also supports "discriminated unions" [0], and did so before TypeScript (Flow's announcement in July 2015: https://flow.org/blog/2015/07/03/Disjoint-Unions/ , TypeScript's ann

Here are the docs for exporting/importing enums: https://flow.org/en/docs/enums/using-enums/#toc-exporting-en... - works fine with the new export/import syntax. Docs for enums compilation/

You can similarly search/replace JS code, but using pattern matching and CSS style selectors instead of writing code, with Grasp. It's usable from the command line like sed. http://www.graspjs.com/ For instance ch

For a tool dedicated to searching and replacing JS in this way (AST aware), check out http://graspjs.com You can use both CSS style selectors, and pattern matching, to both search and replace your code.

Self was one of the inspirations behind JavaScript, particularly its prototype system. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self_(programming_language)

Cool project! As monjaro mentions, the two examples are not equivalent however - the grasp example replaces every binary expression (alias: bi) with an addition operation with the right and left hand sides switched. This is a very trivial e

I plan to add support for both LiveScript and CoffeeScript to grasp in the future. PS. If anyone has any questions about grasp please let me know!

If you are looking for a syntax closer to Haskell's, you can take a look at LiveScript ( http://livescript.net/ ) eg. getUserFriends = (userName) -> user <- findUser userName friends <- findFri

LiveScript allows partially applied operators, including property access. You can do: totals = map (.total), orders http://livescript.net/

This syntax already exists in LiveScript ( http://livescript.net/#backcalls ) which compiles to straightforward JS. a <- doFirstThing() b, c <- doSecondThing(a) doFinalThing(b + c)

The name is a joke, the project is not. "LiveScript was one of the original names for JavaScript, so it seemed fitting. It's an inside joke for those who know JavaScript well." (from the site) LiveScript hasn't been used as a name for Java

Try learning Haskell. The concepts I discovered while learning it were very influential in my approach to other languages, even if I don't use Haskell itself all the time. I would suggest http://learnyouahaskell.com/

LiveScript compiles almost 1 to 1 to JavaScript and has no runtime, making it easier to debug and comprehend for JavaScript programmers. You can access and use any JavaScript library without having to resort to a special syntax. For JavaScr

If they like Python, maybe they should have tried LiveScript ( http://gkz.github.com/LiveScript/ ) - a descendent of CoffeeScript. Unlike CoffeeScript, but like Python, it has proper list comprehensions `["#x#y" for x in [\a \b] for y in [1

LiveScript has many features over CoffeeScript that may not exactly be as in Haskell, but are inspired by it. You can define curried functions, use partially applied operators (addTwo = (+ 2)), use operators as functions (sum = fold1 (+)),

If you are interested in this you might want to check out http://gkz.github.com/prelude-ls/ - it has almost all the functions included in Udon as well as about 60 more based off of Haskell's Prelude module.

This is an interesting idea - I will look into it. It does not seem to conflict with the current syntax. Thanks for the suggestion!

Hi Brian, thanks for creating Roy, it's very cool! I've underlined LiveScript functional features in this blog post, but like JavaScript, LiveScript also supports imperative and object-oriented programming. One could port a JavaScript progr
