• Wax compiler – a tiny language designed to transpile to other languages

  This remineds me of Haxe[1]. I like Wax better because of the Common-Lisp-like syntax. [1]: https://haxe.org. - Source: Hacker News / 6 days ago

• Marimo: Interactive Fluffy Ball

  I thought this was a three.js demo but it's actually built with a language called haxe [1]. I've never heard of this language before and looks really cool. Makes me want to play with it! [1] https://haxe.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Ask HN: What are some unpopular technologies you wish people knew more about?

  The Haxe programming language (https://haxe.org/). It's insane how unpopular this is compared to its value. "Haxe can build cross-platform applications targeting JavaScript, C++, C#, Java, JVM, Python, Lua, PHP, Flash, and allows access to each platform's native capabilities. Haxe has its own VMs (HashLink and NekoVM) but can also run in interpreted mode." It's mostly popular in game dev circles, and is used by:... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• One Game, by One Man, on Six Platforms: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

  For those interested in cross platform game development, don't forget https://haxe.org/! The usefulness / popularity ratio is very high on this one :). - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• TC39 Proposal: Types as Comments

• Melange for React devs book, alpha release

  Hey HN, at Ahrefs we have been working on an online book that hopefully helps React developers get up and running with Melange, an OCaml to JavaScript compiler. You can read more about Melange here: https://melange.re/. There are still a few chapters that we'd like to add before considering it "complete", but it might be already helpful for some folks out there, that's why we decided to publish it early. The book... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• ReScript: Rust like features for JavaScript

  ReScript is "Fast, Simple, Fully Typed JavaScript from the Future". What that means is that ReScript has a lightning fast compiler, an easy to learn JS like syntax, strong static types, with amazing features like pattern matching and variant types. Until 2020 it was called "BuckleScript" and is closely related to ReasonML. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: Interest in a Rust-Inspired Language Compiling to JavaScript?

  - ReasonML - https://reasonml.github.io/ - essentially ocaml with nicer syntax. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Earning the privilege to work on unoriginal problems

  This tracks with how I've seen "normal" languages converge on similar, flawed imitations of better type systems through tools and repurposed syntax. Thank you for confirming. Do you have any recommendations or warnings regarding general languages which reach in the opposite direction? Reason[1] and F#[2] are both examples: they attach pre-existing ecosystems and compile-for-$PLATFORM tools to OCaml-like typing.... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• VN Compiler. Why using Fable is too difficult. (Pt. 1)

  Why not use https://reasonml.github.io/ instead? Or just use Typescript? Source: 12 months ago
