This looks great, but I’m a bit confused about what actually exists right now. The site uses the present tense (“it is”, “we are”), but I couldn’t find anything after browsing and clicking around for about 15 minutes. From the “log”, it sounds like only the parser for R Prime is implemented, and that R Prime itself is just a precursor to the actual language that will be used to develop the whole system (from scratch?). Does that mean that R Prime has to be fully developed before work on its successor can even begin?

If anything is already working, where’s the code? Can people contribute yet?

Not trying to nitpick, but it’s hard to tell what’s real vs. vaporware (beyond the author’s very impressive abilities for systems/language design and writing)

The website also mentions a device but I get that’s many years away too, right? I mean how long will it take to actually develop everything that’s described in the website?
