FYI, it would not be accurate to say that "The Flow people moved on to ReScript".

Another example would be the difference between their enum features: https://medium.com/flow-type/typescript-enums-vs-flow-enums-... "TypeScript Enums vs. Flow Enums"

Flow also supports "discriminated unions" [0], and did so before TypeScript (Flow's announcement in July 2015: https://flow.org/blog/2015/07/03/Disjoint-Unions/ , TypeScript's anno…

Here are the docs for exporting/importing enums: https://flow.org/en/docs/enums/using-enums/#toc-exporting-en... - works fine with the new export/import syntax. Docs for enums comp…

You can similarly search/replace JS code, but using pattern matching and CSS style selectors instead of writing code, with Grasp. It's usable from the command line like sed. http:/…

For a tool dedicated to searching and replacing JS in this way (AST aware), check out http://graspjs.com You can use both CSS style selectors, and pattern matching, to both search …

Self was one of the inspirations behind JavaScript, particularly its prototype system. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self_(programming_language)

The name is a joke, the project is not. "LiveScript was one of the original names for JavaScript, so it seemed fitting. It's an inside joke for those who know JavaScript well." (fr…

Try learning Haskell. The concepts I discovered while learning it were very influential in my approach to other languages, even if I don't use Haskell itself all the time. I would …

LiveScript compiles almost 1 to 1 to JavaScript and has no runtime, making it easier to debug and comprehend for JavaScript programmers. You can access and use any JavaScript libra…
