Interesting project, problematic name?

Searching for answers in the proper context was difficult pre-AI for some language languages (ex. "Go" vs "Golang" [1]), I wonder if search term collision with the word "script" is going to be better or worse with summarized searches.

[1] The Go language developers at sometime asserted the name was not "Golang", but that produced much better search results.

Was this post written with AI? The syntax and use of emojis certainly looks like something Claude would generate.

Very interesting. I made a similar project called tsonic [1] which compiles TS to C# and then uses NativeAOT to compile it down to native code.

We'd have faced similar issues, and I'm curious how you solved it. From your examples:

  function add(a: number, b: number): number {
    return a + b;
  }

The challenge I faced here with JS/TS was that they have a single "number" type which can be carry ints, longs, floats etc. In most application code, you don't want a and b to be floats - you want them to be integers; such as in a loop counter. There are a whole bunch of types in native code that have no equivalent in TS.

It took me several months to get to a usable state, working on issues one by one.

This is a great project. Keep going, good luck.
