Very interesting Unison-adjacent language. It remains to be seen if any of these distributed functional platforms can actually make useful software - we will find out soon enough (I just really don't like the Haskell-style syntax). I also doubt how well the AI integration will work given the departure from traditional programming assumptions in the dataset. The sharing features look very similar to val.town. Excited to get to try it in 2024.

I love Haskell style, wish Elm hadn't failed / petered out – I'm in on this

Nailed it 😄

Thank you for the kind words! Let me know if you have any questions :)
