Bible Stories for Software Developers:
Genesis One - a DSL?
Let’s build an IDE extension that will take statements along the lines of “let there be X” and “let the X have Y” and automatically generate equivalent code for use in an actual project.
We’ll build a Visual Studio extension with C# and the ability to produce C# or TypeScript code. Support for other languages & IDEs is dependent upon the knowledge of participants.
Bible Stories for Software Developers is a passion project that explores the intersection of the Bible and software development. This project has come from that.
This is an experiment to ask questions about comparing software and scripture:
- Does this change how we feel about either?
- What effect does this have on how we see the act of creation?
- Does it change how we feel about writing software as a creative act?
- Is this a helpful tool for creating code?
