SqueakJS VS D (Programming Language)

It actually gets more complicated because there are ports of Squeak descendants than run in-browser. https://squeak.js.org is a Smalltalk virtual machine written in Javascript and that has allowed some crazy browser based stuff. https://pharojs.org PharoJS is a slightly different approach. It provides tools to deploy your Pharo developed code into the browser. Source: almost 2 years ago

Oh sorry, HN usability played with our hearts :D The message was meant to this other dev, quite cool mind map: https://wiki.nikitavoloboev.xyz And I'm impressed by what you have done there. I even played a bit of DOOM heh. Your project reminded me a little bit of https://squeak.js.org in the sense of having a full OS like thing in the browser. Congrats for the achievement! - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

So there is [1] https://squeak.js.org/ and [2] https://github.com/codefrau/SqueakJS which seems to be able to not only run Squeak, but also [3] https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev/wiki/Run-Cuis-in-the-Web-Browser.-(SqueakJS) and [4] https://github.com/carolahp/pharo on common JS-runtimes in acceptable speeds. There is also [5] https://caffeine.js.org/ and [6]... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

Show examples on the main web page. Try and find an AngelScript example. It's stupidly hard. Compare it to these web sites: https://dlang.org/ https://koka-lang.github.io/koka/doc/index.html https://vale.dev/ http://mu-script.org/ https://go.dev/ https://www.hylo-lang.org/ Sadly Rust fails this too but at least the Playground is only one click away. And Rust is mainstream anyway so it doesn't matter as much. I... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

You are both right it seems. GP seems to have omitted withour GC. Number one on your list could be Dlang no? Not affiliated. https://dlang.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

Check out D. It has Turing-Complete templates with specialised static if, static foreach, version, and debug constructs, all as statements and declarations, as well as more general quasiquoting expressions and declarations with mixin (yes, that is the same as Ruby's, Python's or PHP's eval, but at compile-time; in fact you can import() files at compile-time too and write a compiler in user code that compiles...
