This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 77.185.75.42 (talk) at 00:04, 20 March 2019 (→Proposed improvements:). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Proposed improvements:

Add the following sections:

Code examples

  • At least a "Hello World"
  • Maybe also a JavaScript FFI example, highlightling the ease of integration with existing JS-codebases/frameworks

Implementations

  • Mention alternative implementations, in particular purescript-native which targets C++ as a backend instead of EcmaScript.

Applications

  • Industry: There are already several companys which rely on PureScript for a significant portion of their codebase. A few of the major ones would be worth mentioning here, underlining the real-world significance and strength of PureScript.

Ecosystem

  • documentation on pursuit
  • Pulp
  • Bower
  • psc-package
  • Editor integrations (vscode, atom, vim/emacs)

Community

  • Maybe mention the discourse, github, slack channels, ...

Future Directions

  • Which aspects of the language are stable, which are in the progress of being extended & improved?
  • Are there any essential design-principles that drive the evolution of the language? E.g. in C++ the motto is "you should not have to pay for what you don't use"... are there any similar philosophies in the evolution of PureScript?
