||Joe's Hypothetical Agenda - Glow-Lang/glow GitHub Wiki

(March 2021. For historical reasons only. To be deleted in 2022? Pending items all copied to the Roadmap already.)

Pay technical debt

• replace all classes with prototypes in runtime/* !117
• enable trace logging in participant runtime and EVM code generator
• minimize boilerplate for builtin functions
• find a better home for various utility functions
• implement mobile version of DApps page on glow-lang.org

Improve CLI

• enable interactions with no inputs to be run entirely with a single command (buy_sig + coin_flip)
• enable interactions with user inputs to be run entirely with a single command (rps_simple)
• have integration tests invoke CLI from separate processes

Implement critical language features

• support custom datatypes #68
• make functions re-entrant
• do TODOs in setup-tail-call

Prepare for additional backends

• abstract participant runtime and on-chain code generator
• code gen as much of gerbil-cardano as possible with TemplateHaskell

Design DApp explorer

• automagically place DApps in a 2d layout like productchart.com
• zoom or hover on DApp to see its source
