Bored on holidays or miss Omegle? Come chat with us on MeroChat!
It’s a web based random chat where you’re presented with a flow of user profiles, whom you can choose to chat with. And of course someone else might find you the same way and send you a message out of the blue (provided your privacy settings allow it).
And here’s the code. (Written in PureScript!) A lot remains to be done but it’s a joyful thing already.
At the bottom of the page, “Privacy Policy” is misspelled “Privacy Police”. I don’t know if you have any power to change that, but I thought I should point it out.
Noted, thanks!
Messages are not end to end encrypted and can thus be read from service provider.
Additionally Google is integrated into website.
That’s true. It’s due to lack of implementation.
Getting e2ee right is tricky business. Any help or insight would be appreciated.
yey, more friends to chat with.
Written in PureScript
Using a purely functional niche language like that will really prevent good developers from contributing IMO.
Or it might encourage someone to learn a new paradigm :)
You could have a multi-paradigm programming language and use FP techniques in the code. And at least in my university there was an introduction to FP and i assume that is true for most CS degree programs.
Anyway no offence but i wonder how many of the people who upvoted you actually programmed in a purely functional programming language . i read and did the exercises for real world haskell and i don’t think purely functional programming language can create the clearest code. i can see the advantages but a language with a strong support for FP and OOP would be better IMO (Ruby?). I also can’t think of a popular FOSS project that uses a purely functional language (pandoc is an exception, but that seems like a sweet spot for FP).
But it is a cool project and i like the endeavor.
