About Roy
Roy was a statically-typed functional programming language that compiled to JavaScript. It was created in 2011 by Brian McKenna to simplify writing robust and maintainable code for web development by leveraging features such as type inference, immutable data structures, and algebraic data types.
Strengths of Roy included its simplicity, type inference, and focus on immutability and algebraic data types. Weaknesses involved limited adoption and community support. Competitors were other compile-to-JavaScript languages like TypeScript, PureScript, and Elm.
