You can now directly sponsor Roc's development!
The plan for now is to use donations exclusively to pay contributors, although someday we may use funds for other things too (e.g. server costs, which we don't yet have any).
Any donations appreciated! ❤️
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 a demo from
@phillyete
2022 of early-stage native desktop apps in Roc, with a bonus demo of cross-compiling Roc applications to self-contained executables that run on other operating systems:
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:
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!)

No estimates yet, other than "not soon" - there's a lot to do to make it production-ready!
Someone could certainly make a platform for building native-like phone apps, absolutely. 💯
