Or https://fable-elmish.github.io/elmish/ on Fable.io. F# and Elm are very similar.

For anyone would missed it, also see this great link on HN recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16233644 - DNA seen through the eyes of a coder (2017)

But to be fair, Gitlab does a lot more than these. We use it at work for all the issue tracking, pipeline and CI, pages and wiki features beyond the simple GIT hosting.

F# has added some new features on top of OCaml like: - Lightweight syntax - Active Patterns to extend pattern matching - Type Providers to make it easy to interact with json/sql in a type safe way

It's a joy to work in

All the advantages of ocaml, cross platform, great tooling

I'll second the Princeton course

I believe Elmish is the current best Elm architecture for fable: https://fable-elmish.github.io

Great find

I didn't really 'get' parser combinators until I watched the following introduction (showing how to build a parser library from scratch in F#): https://skillsmatter.com/skillscasts/9731-understanding-pars.... Highly recommended.

Beautifully said

I certainly looked at the cheat sheets, played around a lot, read lots of online tutorials. Only once I had a basic understanding did I read Don's Expert F#, its great, but not for beginners.

Me too, and the whole site is available as a ebook: https://www.gitbook.com/book/swlaschin/fsharpforfunandprofit...

Sounds interesting, is a repo available?

What a great comment, I wish I could up vote this 1000 times !

That's the problem, you can't solve people problems with technology, god knows I've seen enough people try ...

I think part of this is the built in functions/frameworks for Javascript are so small.

Coding in Ruby, C# or whatever is about learning the standard library as much as the syntax.

So much of the churn is caused by the constant rewriting of basic functionality (e.g. date handling), if we had a bigger and standardised standard library, we wouldn't need half of the packages

Also bare in mind the original game that evolved into Monopoly was designed to be upsetting, to teach the dangers of monopolies (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_board_game_Mono...)

My wife suffered with ulcers all her life until a comment on the NHS website suggested cutting out SLS. She followed the advice and very quickly stopped getting ulcers. I mentioned it in passing to our dentist and he said he won't use a products with SLS in for himself or his family ...
