A community of language design enthusiasts interested in bringing new languages to the Ethereum platform.
Current status:
Apart from general discussions in the Gitter room, some people in this community are in the process of conducting an experiment in which different approaches to contract implementation will be evaluated with respect to a set of metrics. New participants and opinions are extremely welcome! We are currently in the process of defining the framework of the experiment, help and feedback is encouraged.
Topics of interest:
- Entity Component Systems
- Linear Logic and types
- Haskell-inspired language for the EVM
- Lisp-inspired language for the EVM
- Dependent Types and Formal Verification
- Asynchrony
