I added an in-browser REPL to my site so that people could try out the ideas : http://www.typesandotherdistractions.com/2011/03/try-purity.html

There are a few basic things missing that I'll be adding soon, most notably a module system and generic types, but for now, please let me know what you think.

Some sample code is available here: https://github.com/paf31/Purity/wiki

which can pretty much be pasted right into the REPL (modulo removing comments), and my blog contains a few guides to the syntax in the more recent posts.

Thanks!



I'd have loved to try it, but it requires SilverLight. Would it be possible to hook this up using a JavaScript REPL like http://try-clojure.org ?


I'm sure it would be possible, but my js skills aren't quite up to the task...


You could run it on the server side, like https://github.com/timrobinson/try-fsharp/.


I'd thought about that, I might give it a go once I have a few more features in the language worked out.

Both the links you give are the same- was that intentional?


No, thank you :)
