Echo JS 0.11.0

If this was an Open Source project, i would definitely have pledged.

This is not open source?!

Client side is, not server side

Doesn't really matter if the client is open source does it? 

The compiler is the interesting part here, crowd funding a third party proprietary service is a bit odd.

I'm not sure anyone would really trust code being built on a third party website without transparency. Nothing is to stop you from injecting shady code, etc.

Anyway, my two cents: the compiler is interesting but the service is not. Best of luck.

I understand

It is very nice.

Thanks

I'm a bit sceptical. 


http://enclosejs.com explains some of the challenges in compiling JavaScript.

Also on the smaller platforms like Arduino do have http://www.espruino.com but are quite limited in memory size so you really need to know what you are doing.

Have you tried the Arduino example on http://nectar-lang.com ?

Its weight is 5ko and you can flash your Arduino (avrdude) with it

I'm pretty sure the Arduino example works, as it looks quite similar to Arduino code. Now what would be interesting is if the hello world example would compile for Arduino (eg. Console.log being handled by a serial.write)

With the NectarJS client it compiles, I will update the web demo to make it also work in the browser
