Objections

  • Hard to understand what the site is at first glance

    From 1 comment
    • Maybe ir's just me but after surfing around I can't really understand what this is. I can't see images neither code. Is this kind of luna-lang? Or a podcast about visual…

    • Meta The site seems to be powered by observable, somehow (I don't know much about it). [1] [2]. Something that tends to happen with this kind of list is that things die, get…

  • Eve is described inaccurately (synchronous, logic-based rather than reactive)

    From 1 comment
    • That's a very cool site! I'm not sure that "notebook" and "reactive" are the two main features I would use to describe Eve, the one language I sort-of know on that list. I think…

Requests

  • Add a glossary explaining the tags

    From 1 comment
    • On the note of "it might not mean what you think it means", I was hoping for a short blurb describing each of the tags. A glossary, maybe?

  • Add capability-based languages category (E, Pony, Monte)

    From 1 comment

  • Are any systems based on Prolog or logic programming?

    From 1 comment
    • Are any of these systems based on Prolog? I feel like the next great advancement will need to use the core concept of logic programming to some extent.

Alternatives named

  • MiniKanren / core.logic in Clojure

    From 1 comment
    • With projects like MiniKanren, it's more likely we'll see logic programming included in a language as a library, rather than rooted at the core of the language. Look at what…

  • Awesome lists and subreddits of visual programming languages

    From 1 comment
    • It's like an "awesome list" or subreddit of visual programming languages except each entry has a detail page that includes a review and feedback
