Not related to Haxe directly, just an interesting find I came across, with an approach I hadn’t come across before:
As opposed to Haxe, this language doesn’t so much feature various backends (it only targets WebAssembly at the moment), it sort-of features various front-ends, but with a twist:
The different “front-ends” only appear differently, they are in fact stored in one syntax (so you have no interop problems, or developer feuds over which front-end is better), and a file system driver takes care of presenting that one syntax as the user’s desired syntax, on the fly, back and forth… A browser plugin should even take care of presenting the user’s desired syntax in the browser, etc.
I doubt it will ever grow into something big, but I like how the guy who designed it managed to come up with such a novel idea.
