Hey,
I built a little programming language that compiles to JavaScript coming from a hybrid app development mindset.
What do you think?
Would you use it in your Ionic apps?
Looks very nice. Always a bit cautious of things like this CoffeeScript as one often ends up spending more time learning a new syntax for little to no benefit. I quite like your approach as it touches on the areas that annoy me most about JavaScript and introduces some nice syntactic sugar. I also like the focus on type safety and the compile-time errors.
I still need convincing the benefits are outweigh the additional layer and complexity though but I may for once be willing to give it a try.
An Ionic template that adds Spider compilation into the build workflow would offer further encouragement…
