ScrapScript – A tiny functional language for sharable software
Hacker NewsScrapScript – A tiny functional language for sharable software
Hi friends, I started casually working on scrapscript in 2015. I built a few compilers over the years to test out various ideas/implementations, and I think I'm finally happy with the overall design. The code is not public yet. Email me at hello@taylor.town if you're interested in joining the core team later this year. Let me know if you have any questions or feedback :)
