It seems the time to remind you: I'm builing my own browser engines "The Argonaut Constellation"!
I see a need to illustrate an alternate vision for the web if we are to get the improvements we want. I see a need for a more modular engine to aid experimentation both regarding the web & elsewhere.
And well... Someone had to do it!
@mauve @agregore I link to all my repos at https://argonaut-constellation.org/
It's basically all written in Haskell!
@mauve I believe @agregore would be most interested in extending my "HURL" URL dispatcher component. And while it's nowhere ready for it, I'd certainly welcome a desktop being built around it!
I hope it doesn't bother I specifically plan not to implement JavaScript. You can ofcourse add it around the edges of my other components, but I cannot take on the workload or the expectations. And besides it hinders my ability to chase the vision of web that works beautifully on any device.
@alcinnz @mauve @agregore Two thoughts:
1) I love Haskell, definitely going to look at this.
2) I've sometimes mused what life would be like if browsers were scripted with Scheme (say, something R6RS compatible) instead of JavaScript. Not saying that anyone *should* try that, only that it'd be interesting.
