-## What is Lux?
+# What is Lux?

@@ -34,54 +34,49 @@ You can become a patron by supporting Lux through [Patreon](https://www.patreon.
The language is mostly inspired by the following 3 languages:
-* Clojure (syntax, overall look & feel)
+* Clojure (syntax)
* Haskell (functional programming)
-* Standard ML (module system)
+* Standard ML (polymorphism)
-### Types
-
-They are implemented as plain-old data-structures whose expressions get eval'ed by the compiler and integrated into the type-checker.
-
-That means it's actually possible to generate types via functions and macros.
-
-### Module system
+### Concurrency
-The module system is heavily inspired by Standard ML.
+Lux supports multiple paradigms for concurrent programming:
-The main difference between Lux and Standard ML is that Standard ML separates interfaces/signatures and implementations/structures from the rest of the language, whereas Lux implements them on top of the base language.
+* Threads and atomic references.
+* Asynchronous programming (i.e. promises & futures).
+* Functional Reactive Programming (FRP).
+* Software-Transactional Memory (STM).
+* The actor model.
-How?
+More paradigms will be supported in the future.
-By implementing interfaces/signatures as record-types and implementations/structures as actual records.
+### Multi-platform
-##### But, why not just use type-classes?
+Lux can compile to JVM bytecode, and thereby it can run anywhere Java can.
-Haskell's type-class system forces the user to only specify 1 instance for any given type-class and its argument.
+On top of that, Lux can compile to JavaScript code, Python, Ruby, and Lua.
-If there are more than 1 possible valid instances (as is the case for Monoid of Int), you have to resort to _newtype hacks_ to be able to provide alternative implementations.
+This makes Lux an extremely versatile language.
-By using a system like Standard ML's, that problem is averted.
+And more platforms are coming in the future!
-Additionally, by hosting the module system on top of records, which are regular values, you get the further benefit that structures can be parameterized at run-time just like any other value.
+**Note**: Lux code can also be compiled into libraries that can be consumed in any of the platforms Lux can compile to; which means Lux makes for amazing glue code for polyglot projects.
-You can also write functions that take and return structures (as _functors_ do in Standard ML), and you can generate structures on the fly.
+### Extensibility
-> Also, Lux now offers a mechanism for easy polymorphism, just like Haskell's type-classes, but built upon its module system, thanks to the `library/lux/type/auto` module and its `##` macro.
+Lux is being built to be the most extensible and versatile language ever made.
-> You can learn more about that by reading the book and the documentation.
+Not only can its syntax be extended through macros, but even the semantics of the language, its available roster of optimizations, and even its mechanisms for code-generation can be extended with a mechanism for compiler extension which is similar to its mechanism for macro definition.
-### Functional programming
+A new (experimental) meta-compiler architecture has been added which will enable Lux to become on its own a platform for polyglot programming and language experimentation.
-While the means to do Java-interop are provided, Lux is commited to functional programming.
+### Types
-Functions are curried and partial application is as simple as just applying a function to less arguments than it needs (as in Haskell).
+They are implemented as plain-old data-structures whose expressions get eval'ed by the compiler and integrated into the type-checker.
-e.g.
+That means it's actually possible to generate types via functions and macros.
-```
-... Add 1 to each number in the list.
-(each (+ 1) (list 1 2 3 4 5))
-```
+They can also be accessed from within macros to generate all sorts of type-driven code.
### Macros
@@ -89,69 +84,11 @@ Unlike in most other lisps, Lux macros are monadic.
The `(Meta a)` type is the one responsible for the magic by threading `Lux` compiler-state instances through macros.
-You can use `macro:` to define these monadic macros.
-
-Alternatively, you can use the `syntax:` macro, which also offers monadic parsing of Code tokens for convenience.
-
-### Custom pattern-matching
-
-##### Wait... wut?
-
-Custom pattern-matching basically means that you can use macros to provide custom syntax and features on top of the pattern-matching macro `case`.
-
-For instance, the `list` and `list&` macros are used to build lists.
-
-But you can also use them to destructure lists inside pattern-matching:
-
-```
-... Try to pattern-match against a list, extract its elements and multiply them.
-(: (Maybe Nat)
- (case (: (List Nat)
- (list 2 3))
- {#Item x {#Item y {#End}}}
- {#Some (* x y)}
-
- _
- {#None}))
-
-(: (Maybe Nat)
- (case (: (List Nat)
- (list 2 3))
- (^ (list x y))
- {#Some (* x y)}
-
- _
- {#None}))
-```
-
-There is also the special **^or** macro, which introduces *or patterns*:
-
-```
-(type: Weekday
- (Variant
- {#Monday}
- {#Tuesday}
- {#Wednesday}
- {#Thursday}
- {#Friday}
- {#Saturday}
- {#Sunday})))
-
-... Returns TRUE if it's either Saturday OR Sunday.
-(def (weekend? day)
- (-> Weekday Bit)
- (case day
- (^or {#Saturday}
- {#Sunday})
- true
-
- _
- false))
-```
+You can use `macro` to define these monadic macros.
-> Please note that `^` and `^or` are just macros like any other and anyone can implement them.
+Alternatively, you can use the `syntax` macro, which also offers monadic parsing of `Code` tokens for convenience.
