| − | We are adding a new front-end to the Clean compiler that will accept Haskell '98 source code. Which is good news for many people, we hope. Not only there will be another Haskell '98 compiler, but it should be one that compiles fast and produces efficient code. Another important property is that Haskell and Clean code can be mixed! So, Clean users can make use of Haskell libraries, while Haskell users can make use of Clean libraries (such as the iTask library) and Clean features (such as uniqueness typing, [[Dynamics]], generic programming, [[Sparkle]], Gast).

With this library, one can assign tasks to users and control the order in which these tasks have to be performed. A user uses a browser to perform the tasks assigned to him or her. The iTask system is therefore also very suited for web programming and web form handling. The tasks are defined on a very high level declarative monadic style. Have a look at the iTask pages [http://www.cs.ru.nl/~rinus/iTaskIntro.html].

To make this possible we run full blown Clean applications in the browser as Java applet, making use of the fast Sapl interpreter [http://www.st.cs.ru.nl/papers/2007/janj2007-TFP06-EfficientInterpretationOfSAPL.pdf]. The system automatically switches between client side and server side evaluation when needed.

If you want to stay informed about the latest development of Clean, you can follow what we do through our Gitlab website.
On https://gitlab.com/clean-and-itasks/ we host our latest unreleased code, and track progress of new features and bugfixes.
