About Links
Links was created in 2006 by Philip Wadler and his team to address the complexities of web development. It aimed to simplify the process by providing a single language that could be used for both client-side and server-side programming, reducing the need for multiple languages and frameworks. The goal was to streamline web application development and improve maintainability.
Strengths of Links include its ability to unify client-server development, strong type system, and functional programming paradigm. Weaknesses involve limited adoption, smaller community support, and potential performance issues compared to more established languages. Competitors include JavaScript frameworks like React and Angular, as well as other full-stack solutions like Node.js and Django.
