Fennel is "Lua, but with LISP syntax". Which is… if anything the opposite of what I want. Hm.

#BabelOfCode 2024 Week 7 Language: Haskell Confidence level: Medium low PREV WEEK: https://mastodon.social/@mcc/114308850669653826 NEXT WEEK: https://mastodon.social/@mcc/114463342416949024 RULES: https://mastodon.social/@mcc/113676228091546556 I was going to do Fennel this week, but then I looked at the problem and thought "this is ideal for Haskell "amb". I have been looking for an excuse to use Haskell "amb" for 25 years. So Haskell. I have tried to learn Haskell 3 times now and failed. This "Babel of Code" thing was originally in part an excuse to do Haskell
