There was once a time when I'd see a page like this and think "wow, must be a great project with such a polished website".

Now, it's just a neutral or perhaps even very slightly negative signal (especially the em-dash in the very first line of the page).

Anyone able to tell me if this is a project actually worth paying attention to, or just another raindrop in the current monsoon of slop?

Somewhat with you on this. I got slightly excited for a brief moment, but then the site starts to scream "an LLM threw this together super quickly" which doesn't spark joy at all.

I then started digging into the code examples and quickly determined that nothing about this project is for me, even as a fan of Rust and some of its influences it has on recent languages. That web routing example is absolutely gross to my eye, for example.

Different strokes for different folks - my own thoughts on language design (I'm hacking on one in private over the past several years, maybe one day it'll be shareable) would probably make some folks have a similar reaction, despite taking a wildly different approach than here. But it does suck to see Yet Another Vibe Looking Site hosting a language that feels like Yet Another Flavor Of Similar Stuff. Really looking forward to a language that wildly shakes things up in a usable way, and has a lot of care put into the DX... this one did not check that box for me.

The web-routing thing is especially gross because a different example shows off pattern-matching.

The language choices demonstrate excellent taste though.

Looks like we may be going to go back to the geocities days of primitive websites. I use still use hugo to generate my personal site automatically from markdown upon PR approval.

A card grid with rounded corners as the second section and a dark blue or purple theme just scream "designed by Claude".

It's decent design, but not a useful quality signal.

It's clearly vibecoded if you look at the commit history.

you know what's even worse than slop? Zero-effort 'is this maybe slop can someone tell me' posting.
