Haven't dived in yet but really love the concept and look forward to seeing it develop. Not crazy about the name but I appreciate the ambition either way! Hope you don't mind but wanted to show some support.

Thanks for reaching out, Jay! Also, thank you for that one time sponsorship. :)

I, too, am really excited about what's upcoming for jank; hopefully the name grows on you.

Like the user above, I'm quite excited to see where this project goes, and if it goes where I think a lot of us think it can, it might end up being a new favorite language for quite a lot of people!

Also if you don't mind I have a couple of repo suggestions:

  • if you enable discussions, people will be able to say stuff like this there (if that's what you want obviously)
  • I suggest moving the language to its own GitHub org if you're open to it: jank-lang/jank or something. That will help not only the visibility and discovery of the project, but might also make it feel more like a community project and might solicit more outside contributors. I'm not a psychologist, but that's my theory 👨‍⚕️

Great suggestions. Two weeks ago, it was just me. Now there's a whole lot more community management to do. I'm still catching up. :)

  1. Done!
  2. Done! Turns out I already had the jank-lang org created.
