Thanks for the pointer to a link that doesn't have a hard-coded version in it. I've created a python script so we can make updating this part of our release process.

I'm making a script like that myself for my Dart vi-like editor vid . BTW beware the format has changed slightly with the "W" in a different place

I came from the Dart community myself 😄. Glad to see that other people have found Koka.

It seems like a great language I'd like to explore ! Although it might still be in a early stage in regards of libraries etc.

Yes it is. Libraries can't be done alone though; they require a community. We are getting more active at accepting contributions. I hope you can see the potential for Koka to grow, and become part of the community - at least as an enthusiast, even if it isn't your day job yet :).

One difficult thing about Koka and creating the standard libraries is that Koka includes a bunch of non-standard features that directly affect api design. We are still learning what idiomatic Koka code looks like. You can help with that :).

I definitely can see the potential, although I've only recently started looking into it. I do have a lot of things going on right now, so not sure how much i can contribute at the moment, but will keep an eye on it. In my experience building a community requires a strong leader - especially in the initial phase. Keep up the good work :)
