Reminiscent of the now 18-year-old Cappuccino project https://www.cappuccino.dev/
Project that is still alive, amazingly.
The last release and blog post are from 2018, is it actually alive?
Yep! If you look at the GitHub repo, there is commits added in the last 5 days:
https://github.com/cappuccino/cappuccino/commits/main/
> Latest Version: 1.0.0 (September 4 2018)
Objective-J is something I entirely forgot existed.
I paid $20 for their interface builder and never got it.
The web version of Keynote with it was amazing.
I’d say this is closer to Blazor
sooner or later this was gonna happen. Swift is like Haskell, but nicer and more programmer-friendly.
Looks a bit like jQuery mixed with jsx and ember or angular
Any reason/motivation why ?
Their demo is flakey and sometimes fails to hydrate in Firefox latest
Nice!
We already have Typescript, I don’t see the purpose.
‘cause Swift is great, I guess! And more seriously, probably for a shared logic with an iOS & android app.
Just wait until they rewrite Swift with Rust.
I'd rather use Slopjective-C 3.0 tbh
This sentiment is sorely missing from the endless Rust re-writes.
