Roc

The Roc Programming language

[Roc @roc_lang]

@ziglang @rtfeldman This is not a sponsored post, we just think the conference will be awesome!

[Roc @roc_lang]

A longtime member of the Roc community just launched a new conference!
"Software Should Work" will be in Columbia, Missouri on July 16-17.

The speaker lineup includes Andrew Kelly (@ziglang) and our very own @rtfeldman 🔥

New syntax, new compiler, new Roc ✨

Watch the full talk on where the language is today and where we’re going:

Massive thanks to our new corporate sponsor, @class_lambda! 🎉

We really appreciate the support. 💜

The @roc_lang track is live on @exercism_io! Exercism is a fantastic platform for learning programming languages and I'm very happy to say that Roc is now part of it. To mark the occasion I wrote a blog post about one of my solutions: https://t.co/IJQA7dscy2

Here's something useful! Pure Roc implementations of:

⭐️SHA-256
⭐️HMAC-SHA 256
⭐️Base64
⭐️Hexadecimal strings

(Security note: these aren't trying to be resilient to timing attacks, so only use them for use cases where timing attacks aren't a concern!)

[Richard Feldman @rtfeldman]

Someone at #sycl24 was just talking about organizing a @roc_lang conference in Côte d'Azur in the next year or so...if that existed, would you want to attend? 😃

[Christopher W. Wood @ChrisWellsWood]

For anyone wanting to write @roc_lang code in Neovim, it's quite straight forward to get the language server connected up. See this Gist for details: https://t.co/3b5VwJWeYU

[Roc @roc_lang]

Thanks to Alf Richter for creating a Roc extension for @zeddotdev - it has both a language server integration and tree-sitter grammar for syntax highlighting!

Here's something useful that comes up a lot: a @roc_lang package by @imclerran for parsing ISO-8601 date/time strings! 🎉

Here's something @isaacvando used the same platform to create: a drum machine! 🎶

Roc is a really interesting language, and a lot of fun!

If your employer is interested in sponsoring Roc's development, send me a DM and we can sort out the details!

Thank you so much for helping move Roc forward! 🎉

[Roc @roc_lang]

Thanks to everyone posting in Roc Zulip about their experiences using Roc for Advent of Code!

It's great to see the solutions people are coming up with, along with all the feedback, bug reports, and enjoyment:

@roc_lang I can just link the videos here for convenience 👍

[Roc @roc_lang]

Some screenshots of the code, to give you a sense of what it looks like:

Video of the completed Roc Clock ("Roc Cloc" perhaps? 🤔) by @Billzabob_ - the logic making this happen is written in @roc_lang! 😍
