chat with Richard Feldman about Roc – his fast, friendly, functional language
inspired by Richard’s love of Elm.

Roc takes many of Elm’s ideas beyond the frontend and introduces some great ideas of its own.
Get ready to learn about static dispatch, platforms vs applications, opportunistic mutation, purity inference, and a whole lot more.
