Crosscut

Daily Thought - 2025-03-04

Hey, I'm Hanno! These are my daily thoughts on Crosscut, the programming language I'm creating. If you have any questions, comments, or feedback, please get in touch!

I'm not writing these daily thoughts because I expect people to read them. Maybe that will change at some point. Once Crosscut has found a user base, I'll probably end up posting more things here that are intended to help those users, and less about ideas for its future development. But we'll see how that turns out.

In the meantime (and I've said this before), I have a different reason for writing daily: It helps me think. And the recent detour into modules has been a great example of that.

When I started, I only had vague ideas about how modules could work. Now that I've written down the core of this fuzzy concept, I've already identified parts of it that won't work, developed ideas on how to address that, and wrote all of that down. Over time I'll expand those notes, until they turn into a series of thoughts I post here. Which will then provide even more clarity.

Hey, you! Want to subscribe to my daily thoughts? Just let me know (maybe include a nice message, if you're up for it), and I'll send you an email every time I post a new one.
