Niclas Ahden (Jul 23 2026 at 23:37): Niclas Ahden (Jul 23 2026 at 23:37):The new Roc compiler has now produced a binary which is running in production and serving real user value!
It’s a basic-cli app which syncs data between two systems. If it’d stop or crash I’d get urgent calls quite quickly, so people are now depending on the new Roc :)
Next up: a basic-webserver app serving some internal APIs!
Luke Boswell (Jul 23 2026 at 23:40):I'm interested to know how you find basic-webserver ... I've been exploring the API there a little and definitely haven't settled on that. More eyeballs and opinions would be great.
Luke Boswell (Jul 23 2026 at 23:40):basic-cli has definitely had most of the love
Niclas Ahden (Jul 23 2026 at 23:55):I migrated my fork of the old basic-webserver because I have so much code relying on that API and my additions to it, so I haven’t had a chance to try the new API yet. I’ll definitely move over to it as time permits, but now I just need to get stuff out before the end of vacation when all users come back and start noticing my sporadic downtime for “strategic migrations to new technology” :sweat_smile:
