Reminiscent of the now 18-year-old Cappuccino project https://www.cappuccino.dev/

Project that is still alive, amazingly.

Objective-J is something I entirely forgot existed.

The web version of Keynote with it was amazing.

I paid $20 for their interface builder and never got it.

I’d say this is closer to Blazor

sooner or later this was gonna happen. Swift is like Haskell, but nicer and more programmer-friendly.

Looks a bit like jQuery mixed with jsx and ember or angular

Any reason/motivation why ?

Their demo is flakey and sometimes fails to hydrate in Firefox latest

We already have Typescript, I don’t see the purpose.

‘cause Swift is great, I guess! And more seriously, probably for a shared logic with an iOS & android app.

Just wait until they rewrite Swift with Rust.

I'd rather use Slopjective-C 3.0 tbh

This sentiment is sorely missing from the endless Rust re-writes.

Nice!
