RowScript

RowScript is a robustly-typed functional language that compiles to efficient and reliable JavaScript. It has a user-friendly syntax like TypeScript, and many advanced features like typeclass, effect system, and static reflection.

Example

A hello-world example:

console.log("Hello, RowScript!");

More complicated example with classes and interfaces:

class Person {
    name: string;

    dial() {
        console.log(this.name)
    }
}

interface Phonebook {
    dial(a: this);
}

function dialPerson<P>(person: P)
where P instanceof Phonebook
{
    person.dial();
}

dialPerson(new Person("John Doe"));

Installation

$ pnpm install -D rowscript

Oh, npm is okay too.

Development status

This project is at early stage and under active development, syntax and APIs are expected to change.

We separate our development into following phases:

• [x] Proof-of-concept of research ideas and a most viable compiler
• [x] Get ready for open sourcing, targeting the library writer user group
• [ ] Get ready for production, targeting the application writer (end users) user group
