I’ve been building all my projects with Imba for the past few years, I love it.<p>- TaskTXT - Plain text todos and tasks with timers <a href="https://www.tasktxt.com" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.tasktxt.com</a><p>- ReadyRunner - GPT chat for desktop <a href="https://www.readyrunner.ai" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.readyrunner.ai</a><p>- Chonky Menu Re-Creation - Breakdown of a fancy menu UI <a href="https://www.nathanmanousos.com/posts/chonky-menu" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.nathanmanousos.com/posts/chonky-menu</a><p>I’ve made several videos about Imba too:<p>- Building a counter in 49 seconds: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XS5q9xhaMc">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XS5q9xhaMc</a><p>- Video timeline UI: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbKTEqmCAJM">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbKTEqmCAJM</a><p>- All of my Imba videos here:

One are where it is clearly valuable is in building prototypes and side projects.
Previously: <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10091454">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10091454</a><p>Imba was actually forked from CoffeeScript... hopefully, they've managed to avoid all the downsides.
Imba powers Scrimba which is an incredibly cool platform with interactive coding screencasts: <a href="https://scrimba.com/">https://scrimba.com/</a>
Confusingly, they seem to be using the term “tag” for what is really an HTML element or component.<p>(E.g. “<div>…</div>” in HTML is not a tag, it’s an element delimited by one starting and one ending tag.)
I wonder why this didn't take off?!<p>This is so much better than React or svelte, no state management, built-in tailwind and more concise and expressive!
It seems that main focus of Imba is code compression. I wonder, at which point they decided that they need a new language for that. I’ve seen things similar to ‘d:hflex ja:center’ many times, and it was achieved by writing a component that translates short props into CSS. I wonder, if there is a popular React library of such components (the ones I’ve seen were internal).
This looks interesting. Can this be easily embedded? Could I let my users do some minor customization of my app by giving them an Imba editing window?<p>Currently thinking about something like Workerbox <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33673047">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33673047</a>
