Is there an existing platform that can spawn child processes? I didn't see it in cli_basic, but I also could have missed it :thinking:
If it's not there, maybe I'll just try creating my own platform :muscle:
I don't think the CLI platform supports spawning child processes currently, but it would be sweet to add support for it!
I had this design for it in the CLI platform but it's not implemented
Sweet!
yeah I can help with that if you're interested!
That would be cool! My first plan is to make a little TUI library to get familiar with stuff, and then I want to try having Roc handle the CLI part of a few tools of mine (elm-codegen, elm-gql, and an elm-ui thing I'm working on). Generally all they do is call some .js
that was generated by an Elm app and possibly write some files based on the result.
