Gren: The friendly, fullstack, functional future?

Time to put another new #programming language - and its creator - under the spotlight, as we talk to Robin Heggelund Hansen, the creator of Gren. Gren is a Norwegian word meaning 'branch', which is appropriate for a language that started as a fork from its roots in Elm.With Gren, Robin's trying to create a safe, sane, #fullstack language that puts the power and elegance of functional programming working seamlessly on the server and the browser. But how and why do you do that? What design choices to do make, how much time do you spend on adding new features vs. improving the developer's experience of the existing ones? And most importantly...how do you pronounce Gren correctly? 😅Gren Website: https://gren-lang.orgGren Zulip: https://gren.zulipchat.com/Gren package site: https://packages.gren-lang.org/Example projects written in Gren: https://github.com/gren-lang/example-projectsGren on Mastodon: https://fosstodon.org/@gren_langGren on Twitter: https://twitter.com/gren_lang Gren language proposal on parameterized modules: https://github.com/gren-lang/compiler/issues/81 Elm Website: https://elm-lang.org/  Robin on Mastodon: https://snabelen.no/@robinheghan Kris on Twitter: https://twitter.com/krisajenkins Kris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/ Kris on Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@krisajenkins
