I'm working on a way to easily implement X and x

It involves making a new structure type for break and recurse, passing them the structural context and transpiling based on that

Smort

Since we have OOP, can we have a literal syntax for objects?

¨⟨key|`value`|key2|`value2`⟩ or something

Sure, we can look into that once the rewrite is finished

The main obstacle to Vyxal becoming a praclang is speed.

Speed cannot be improved unless y'all move away from Python

Probably not going to happen for ages but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@Bubbler well we are considering implementing version 3 in Scala, but any language we choose has to have a way to host an online interpreter for free

but work on v3 can't start until we finish rewriting v2

(Or transpilation into JS)

I'm fine with doing v3 in scala - a lot of us (well, me + Aaron at least) don't know pyhton very weel - the only reason I can think of for staying in Python is so we can copy+paste a lot of the code from v2.

(Just throwing an idea: designing custom bytecode is hard, but you can use WebAssembly)

About using wasm: how would one host it? And could it be done using a free hosting service?

Once compiled, a wasm binary can be run on linux or in the browser

Free hosting service - not sure

Netlify Functions might work as the language interpreter backend, though I haven't tried it yet and the language choice is limited

sry my brother

Tell your brother he's always welcome in Vyxal chat :)

In the worst case, there's always a (cursed) way: compile vyxal to wasm in python, give it to browser as a response, and run it in the browser :P

TODO: fix input in the rewrite

it's not accounting for context

(putting this here so I rember)

@Bubbler Would’ve been nice if we were using JS, TS, or Go :(

AWS has a free tier , right? Prrhaps we can use that

aws.amazon.com/free/webapps/…

@user or Rust (experimental)

AFAIK AWS's free tier isn't free forever, except lambda

@Bubbler Does that exist yet?

Also @AaroneousMiller Bubbler’s cursed idea could be helpful to us :p
