>Kick functional logic programming out the lab and into the mainstream

Yet this presentation did none of that. There were no montivating examples on practical usage. The language does not map cleanly to webassembly, it instead reduces to a prolog like graph based execution model. In order to go mainstream you need to be solving more problems that existing languages have than you are creating by having someone use your new language.



It is already being used in fortnite, so it works, scales and does what it needs to do.


If you throw enough compute at any language it will work for scripting games. Is there any evidence that this will actually scale better than a language that better maps to the host processor.
