New Show Hacker News story: Show HN: Alumina Programming Language

Show HN: Alumina Programming Language
2 by tibordp | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Alumina is a programming language I have been working on for a while. Alumina may be for you if you like the control that C gives you but miss goodies from higher level programming languages. It is mostly for fun and exercise in language design, I don't have any grand aspirations for it. It is however, by this time, a usable general-purpose language. Alumina borrows (zing) heavily from Rust, except for its raison d'être (memory safety). Syntax is a blatant rip-off of Rust, but so is the standard library scope and structure. Alumina bootstrap compiler currently compiles to ugly C, but a self-hosted compiler is early stages that will target LLVM as backend. If that sounds interesting, give it a try. I appreciate any feedback! Standard library documentation: https://ift.tt/kQ0l1vG Online compiler playground: https://ift.tt/B5bCgNt

New Show Hacker News story: Show HN: Sora, Personal Publishing Platform

Show HN: Sora, Personal Publishing Platform 10 by chrispuska | 3 comments on Hacker News. We wanted to create, to express ourselves without being judged either by strangers or some algorithm. We wanted our own space on the internet, where our photos and words would matter. So we started to build an app that can showcase our content, without having to pick a platform. You can use Sora to publish a few different content types. - Blog - Polaroid - Poster - Microblog You can either display them all on your Sora profile as a summary (like mine https://ift.tt/x8oP2en ), or put any of them forward for the world to see. We plan to run this app for a long time and looking for feedback, so let us know what you think! (feedback@sora.city, or link on website) --- Our stack today is Node, Typescript, NextJS, atomic CSS, with everything stored on Supabase.

New Show Hacker News story: Show HN: KrotoDC – gRPC in Kotlin with Dataclasses

Show HN: KrotoDC – gRPC in Kotlin with Dataclasses 2 by mscheong | 0 comments on Hacker News. - A protoc plugin data class generator that can be used as a substitute for existing Java protobuf classes that need to be constructed by a builder (which isn't very kotlin-ish). - generates coroutine service base and stubs that use the generated classes as request/response types, allowing you to completely avoid using Java classes. - Since it also generates converter extension functions between the generated types and Java types, you can still easily use protobuf-specific features such as serialization. - Additionally provides Kotlin-specific features (optional fields as nullable, oneof fields as sealed classes).
