I'd also like to acknowledge the support from @ajbouh and Project Substrate (https://t.co/NHr7321HzE), which provided the funding to build the initial MVP. ๐
Without their support none of this would have been possible!
Thanks to a generous contribution from @Shopify, we've secured enough funding to make further progress towards production-ready Ohm+WebAssembly support! https://t.co/525BfMUaAu
Thank you Shopify for funding open source. โค๏ธ
We're still looking for more sponsors! If you or your company can help fund this effort: https://t.co/8mRt31v8Tr
Since 2017, my work on Ohm has been unpaid. Your sponsorship helps the project be sustainable, ensuring that I can maintain and improve Ohm for many years to come!
Very cool to learn that Ohm was used to create Gambu-Script, which is used to teach programming to over 90k students in Austria!
It's part of SchuBu, a free-to-use digital schoolbook: https://t.co/KjNT6ryF2B
If you dig Ohm and are interested in WebAssembly, check out this book by @dubroy (co-creator of Ohm).
You'll learn Wasm (the instruction set and module format) by building a compiler for a small programming language. It's also a great way to learn Ohm!
Excited to announce the official launch of our online book, WebAssembly from the Ground Up! ๐
It's the book we wish we'd had 3 years ago.
No messing with tools and frameworks. It's a hands-on guide to the core of Wasm: the instruction set and module format.

Just been told that https://t.co/Mu5erNN5aO is currently down. Sorry about the disruption!
We're working on a fix, but in the meantime, if you need to access the docs you can find them here: https://t.co/szHUhOq4G5
If you're a fan of @worrydream's Inventing on Principle, check out Seymour, a live programming environment I made with @sakekasi.

New blog post by Hannes Mรผhleisen and Mark Raasveldt:
Runtime-Extensible SQL Parsers Using PEG
https://t.co/BS1AUDeSBn
This post discusses how parsers in DBMSs could be re-designed using Parser Expression Grammars for extensibility and improved error reporting.
Still one of my favourite things built with Ohm โ
Shadama by @yoshikiohshima et al is a live programming environment for particle simulation.
It compiles to GLSL shaders and runs in the browser via WebGL.
I really want this poster and am really tempted to make a version of the Ohm grammar (ohm-grammar.ohm)
Hmmm and I have a long flight coming up soon ๐ค
finally got my hands on the pascal railroad diagram poster. this is based on an original jef raskin design, as ruined by steve jobs. between this and my (repro) 1969 cobol poster, i now believe i am in possession of all extant visually appealing PL posters. is there another?
In @WasmGroundUp, we teach you how to compile a simple programming language down to WebAssembly.
(using Ohm, of course)
Here's a section on inline rule declarations, part of a new draft of Chapter 3, "A Calculator Language".
Thanks to some hard work from @andrewelgert, we now have Ohm grammars for modern versions of JavaScript (ES2015+).
Give 'em a spin and let us know how they work for you!

ICYMI, the last Ohm release came with a sweet new feature: examples embedded in comments.
โ Positive examples begin with //+
โ Negative examples begin with //-
โฆand an `extractExamples` helper to easily add them to your tests.
