Hello, designer of Ur/Web here. It's great to see it popping up again on HN! Apologies for the diminishment of visible activity in the last few years. I've been distracted by working on our Ur/Web-based startup Nectry (https://nectry.com/) in parallel to my professor job.

We hope to be able to hire more engineers to do Ur/Web development at Nectry in the foreseeable future, so do let me know if you think you might be a good match.

Advanced programming languages with state-of-the-art compilers are a great fit for implementing low-code tools, aren't they? I'm surprised I haven't seen anyone doing that with Haskell yet.

On a similar vein, I imagine the folks at Hasura might be doing some pretty advanced stuff to convert arbitrary GraphQL queries into efficient SQL statements.

Tailcall is building something similar in that regard. The idea is to allow developers to specify their orchestration requirements using a DSL and then behind the scenes generate an ultra high performance backend for GraphQL. The query could span over REST, GRPC and other GraphQL services. Check it out — https://github.com/tailcallhq/tailcall
