  • Why Fennel?

    I'm a big fan of moonscript, but occasionally wish it was still be improved and worked on. Yuescript¹ looks like it fixes most of my bugbears with moonscript, and it is largely a faster² drop-in replacement.

    There was s little discussion here ~18 months ago³, but it will largely circular if you look as people are suggesting fennel there ;)

    ² This probably only matters if you have tonnes of moonscript, not just a little neovim/mpv/awesomewm config or something.

    There's also some languages made to compile straight to Lua: - MoonScript is the most popular Lua wrapper - it's built to be more Python-like, featuring indentation-based scopes, function calls without parentheses, lambda syntax, list comprehension, and much more. - Yuescript is a modern update to MoonScript that adds more features (I haven't used it myself, so I'm not entirely sure exactly how it differs from MS). - Teal is a version of Lua that adds static typing for better code standards.

    What I didn't know about is that its fork YueScript is actively maintained, and with some extra features.
  • Trying to move to Emacs again

    I've put together a Lua config with Neovim, but it was still kind of obnoxious to put together. Lua isn't that great of a language, because people seem to forget it's an embed-able language for a reason (it's not supposed to give you tons of features). Using something that makes some of your more complex problems easier like Moonscript or Yuescript can make things more complex in regards to your configuration.
