From my last experience with #roc #roclang I remember that there was some discussion about "capabilities" (something like traits in Rust), but the discussion implement traits on my was that capabilities should not be implemented by the user (in general), which I couldn't understand.
I'd rather have a Rustescque functional language! Not being able to define and implement traits just sounds like another #golang and I really don't want that.
So my ideal #functional #language #programminglanguage would be a pure functional language with traits/interfaces, ergonomics like #ruby or #elm or #elixir, performance like #rust because it compiles to binary with #llvm, with the "platform" approach #roc #roclang currently has, so one can provide minimal interfaces to the OS ...
Which would make it a perfect language for #containers and #microservices but also #CLI tooling and even websites via #wasm (if it can compile to wasm)!
