I've been thinking about making a video game. Is Roc ready for that kind of project?
I am out of touch with the state of things regarding actually using Roc.
video as in "with graphics"
seems a bit early to me, really depends on how much of it you want to be in roc
I guess there isnt any kind of GUI package as of right now right? So I would have to make a platform for doing GUIs in Roc?
I am less turned off by having to do low level stuff like that than I am questions of if these things are even possible right now.
exactly
well another inconvenient thing right now is that we can really only expose concrete types
in this case, the Model
or State
so changes to the definition of Model
in roc would likely require changes on the platform side
but you could hack around that for nwo
*now
by hardcoding your one application's model into the platform, then make it nicer once we support that in the future :big_smile:
I'm pretty busy the next two weeks but in general I'd be happy to help you get that off the ground @Chad Stearns!
That sounds great @Richard Feldman ! I'll sync up with you in a few weeks then.
