Hello,

First of all the project is amazing! I hope you keep it open source so that it becomes the Babel for C# and others languages.

I would like to implement the Stamps concept in C# using the tool(s).

For now I found:

There are few obstacles though:

Thanks!

P.S. Stamps is something I work on for quite some time. Here is the blog post series if you're interested.

Hello,

Hello,

First of all the project is amazing! I hope you keep it open source so that it becomes the Babel https://github.com/babel/babel/ for C# and others languages.

Thank you, I'm pretty sure the project will remain open source.

I would like to implement the Stamps https://github.com/stampit-org/stamp-specification concept in C# using the tool(s).

This looks interesting, is there a particular syntax (or syntaxes) you have in mind?

For now I found:

To be honest, this is all over the place. The best way to use the library is by forking the repo.

There are few obstacles though:

  • I have OS X. I can't install Visual Studio either. Can I run your tools in a POSIX command line?
    • If yes, then could you please post a short step-by-step guide?

I do have a cli that should (could) work on a posix. I'm a windows man and really haven't had the time to get that to work. But the compiler should work and the output should be runnable on mono.

Like I said, it is all over the place, I'm not what you would call "organized". I apologize. I'm hoping to have a definitive version, with proper documentation and an official site at www.metaprogramming.ninja It is just not there yet, I would have hoped for some help.

Thanks!

P.S. Stamps is something I work on for quite some time. Here is the blog post series https://medium.com/@koresar/fun-with-stamps-episode-1-stamp-basics-e0627d81efe0 if you're interested.

I will definitively read about it. Regarding an stamps extension, it should be a fun project and you can count on my help should you be able to run the tools.

Thank you for writing.

PS: You can try spawning a Windows VM and installing Visual Studio.

Will work on that soon.

Meanwhile, I found that mono is not necessary since dotnet got opensourced. Here is how to install it for Mac: https://www.microsoft.com/net/core#macos

The only problem I see is Roslyn, the C# compiler and how compatible it would be. I know their version 2 is supported on mono, but not sure about core. It would be great to be able to build on macos/linux without a hitch.

Cheers, Emilio
