roc replis ready to be implemented. We could start with a very simple cli interface.Alternatively we've thrown the idea around of using a tui library for the roc cli... that's a bigger project and would need much more design work and discussion but also would be heaps of fun to work on.
is there some discussions on supporting roc repl in the new compiler? I think it can be a huge boon for compiler development
Anton (Aug 23 2025 at 14:08):I don't think we've discussed it before but @Luke Boswell will be able to give you more details.
Luke Boswell (Aug 23 2025 at 22:18):@EnDeRBeaT we have a Playground with a REPL using the new compiler in case your not tracking https://roc-lang.github.io/roc-playground/
We haven't wired anything up the the roc cli yet. It's definitely planned, similar to the repl in the rust compiler version (which you can download and use if you want to see how that works).
I'd suggest starting a new thread in zulip if you have ideas or proposals. Or perhaps posting in the worklog thread if you are thinking of working on the cli repl.

Okay sure, I will post to worklog asking for some directions then.
