pxt

Microsoft MakeCode (PXT - Programming eXperience Toolkit) https://github.com/microsoft/pxt is the "base" repo. Among other thing, it contains 'an ARM Thumb machine code emitter' https://github.com/microsoft/pxt-arcade is the arcade one

Just to add to this—the reason I find Static TypeScript particularly interesting is that it is a Microsoft project: https://github.com/microsoft/pxt/tree/master/pxtcompiler Compiling TypeScript to other targets is a significant challenge, so I think that in order for a project to become a viable alternative, it will need the resources of a big company like MS behind it. However, I'm not sure if MS or any other company currently has a great incentive to invest heavily in that. Running TypeScript on Node or Deno is good enough for most applications, and for apps that require better performance, MS already has C#, which was architected from the start to be performant (for example, allowing apps to use just value types / structs so that the GC isn't used).

Microsoft's MakeCode uses a subset of TypeScript with support for AOT compilation via transpilation to C++ as intermediate step. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/makecode https://github.com/microsoft/pxt

Awesome! :) We're really happy to hear that. If you have any suggestions or bugs, please feel free to comment on https://forum.makecode.com/ or https://github.com/microsoft/pxt. We're still in the early stages with Arcade so feedback is especially useful.

This is really cool! I've often wondered if a Blueprint-like editting experiences could be used more broadly. Looking forward to seeing this grow. I think there is also great potential for a very approachable debugging experience. Targeting build systems seems like a great fit as well, since as you pointed out the build DAG is naturally a graph. When you mentioned games programming, I thought of Dream's visual programming: https://youtu.be/eMRp3QMAkz8?t=773 I love the idea of using typescript types to define visual code atoms. We do a very simple version of that to create our Blockly blocks, e.g. block definition: https://github.com/microsoft/pxt-microbit/blob/master/libs/r... although I'm sure you could take that much farther. We run TSC in the browser in a worker thread, here's an example, in case that helps: https://github.com/microsof

This is the github repo: https://github.com/Microsoft/pxt/tree/master/pxtcompiler

It uses Google Blockly internally: https://github.com/Microsoft/pxt/tree/master/pxtblocks

We build editor for microbit (beta - https://pxt.microbit.org). Code is open source as well(https://github.com/Microsoft/pxt). Give us some feedback.

Here are some that I found that are all created in that window: - https://github.com/Microsoft/Docker-PowerShell - https://github.com/Microsoft/malmo - https://github.com/Microsoft/projection-grid - https://github.com/Microsoft/HoloToolkit-Unity - https://github.com/Microsoft/pxt - https://github.com/Microsoft/BotBuilder - https://github.com/Microsoft/elfie-arriba - https://github.com/Microsoft/team-explorer-everywhere I could have found more, but its a big org. Any examples I found that used other licenses where that way because they where related to something else that used a previous license (i.e. all TypeScript stuff is Apache2, hence any new TS is still be Apache2 for consistency).
