Assume mainstream adoption as used by around 7% of all github projects Personally, I’d like to see Nim get that growth.
minus-squarerockSlayer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down1·edit-21 year agoSuper niche, but I wish wren caught on. It’s a language very similar to lua, but indexes start at 0. Also it has some cool features too, but mostly the index thing.
minus-squareTom@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoWow, that looks really nice! I use Lua for PICO-8 stuff and it works well enough, but certain parts are just needlessly clumsy to me. Looks like TIC-80 supports wren. Might have to give that a try sometime!
