It works similarly to Fable but instead of generating javascript it outputs core erlang which then can be compiled to erlang bytecode. The aim is to bring a mature type safe language to the BEAM. As someone who regularly has to refactor erlang code - Karl misses his static types!
Karl's Talk will cover the following points:
- Introduce fez / motivation
- Brief demo/getting started
- What is core erlang?
- Design / Internals
- Challenges / Trade offs
- The future
