This looks nice! Would love to integrate it into an intfic project I'm working on: storyloom-weld.vercel.app How would you say this is inspired by, and compares to, writing in literate programming languages like Inform 7?

#23Now this is prime Hacker News content! Thank you. The idea of a narrative language is fascinating and I'll upvote anything that's using Haxe. I took Haxe for a spin years ago and was really impressed, just haven't been able to find the excuse to use it in my day to day work. I find the idea of cross-platform transpilation rather than compilation to be very interesting. Particularly when working with platforms like iO…
We get all the bells and whistles, and a familiar feel, most new devs are up and running in a week with Haxe.
Compile times are instant, and tooling is good (lsp/testing/etc). LLMs also know Hace quite well as its an old language.
