alt Hacker NewsNow this is prime Hacker News content! Thank you. The idea of a narrative language is fascinating and I'll upvote anything that's using Haxe.
I took Haxe for a spin years ago and was really impressed, just haven't been able to find the excuse to use it in my day to day work. I find the idea of cross-platform transpilation rather than compilation to be very interesting. Particularly when working with platforms like iOS where Apple can change the ground underneath your feet, being able to continue to use first-party tools while writing in the language of your choice is a valuable niche.
Haxe is such a great piece of tech, which becomes more and more powerful as you get to know it better. I wish it was more used by companies and developers in general, but it's versatility is also what makes it hard to master I guess.
