Peeble: An F# -> PHP Transpiler
Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.
Fable has already proved that F# is really good at transpiling. Peeble is taking the same steps to transpile F# to PHP, allowing users to integrate into environments where running .NET is not an option.
Through the example of a real world game development, you'll experience how to write F# using Fable — Elmish on the front, and the same code converted to PHP on the back. This same approach could be done to integrate easily with Go, Python, or similar languages.
The alternative to this would require us to write the full program in JavaScript and PHP, implementing 3K lines of complex game login twice in two different languages.
The end result? The game "Crazy Farmers" . You can view the code on github at https://github.com/thinkbeforecoding/crazy
