I kind of wish (like the OP mentioned) there was a ML (ocaml) like language that compiled to Go source. You would get the best of both worlds and access to a huge ecosystem.

There's Borgo: https://github.com/borgo-lang/borgo

I've never used it so can't speak from any experience, and unfortunately it doesn't seem particularly active (and doesn't mention a current status anywhere), and doesn't have a license, so shrug. When it's been posted here (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40211891), people seemed pretty excited about it.

> GPLv3 or later (with proprietary driver clarification)

What's that parenthetical mean?

Looks like it's explained here: https://github.com/charlotte-os/Catten/blob/main/License/cla...

Specifically, "Users may link this kernel with closed-source binary drivers, including static libraries, for personal, internal, or evaluation use without being required to disclose the source code of the proprietary driver.".

I think, similar to Preact, Mithril skips the VDOM, which makes it "more immediate" than React.

However, updating the DOM and then turning the DOM to an image (i.e., rendering it) still has an indirection that using canvas/webgl/etc. don't have.

Both Mithril and Preact use virtual DOMs:

Some of the comments here remind me of online commentary about some place called "the orange site". Always wondered who they were talking about...

Mmm not a great quote..

Ha, I kind of agree with you, and I'm a little embarrassed it's as upvoted as it is. I just love the silly little video of him saying it and then cracking up. It pops into my head a lot and gives me a laugh. I just felt like sharing it to be goofy. Didn't imagine it would end up at the top of the thread!

"My childhood was elegant homes, tree-lined streets, the milkman, building backyard forts, droning airplanes, blue skies, picket fences, green grass, cherry trees. Middle America as it's supposed to be. But on the cherry tree there's this pitch oozing out – some black, some yellow, and millions of red ants crawling all over it. I discovered that if one looks a little closer at this beautiful world, there are always red ants underneath. Because I grew up in a perfect world, other things were a contrast."
