Show HN: Mycelium

Mycelium Mycelium is a set of typed formats for storing and transferring data. As you might expect it supports things like: Bits Arrays Products Sums (Coproducts) Lists But as you might not expect, it also has support for: Refs (pointers) Expressions Functions/Procedures Types Every value that you can specify in Mycelium has a Type (which is also a Value), and every Value can be stored or transferred. Values can be computed by evaluating Expressions. Expressions are also Values and can also be stored or transferred. Virtual Machine mvm1/ The Mycelium Virtual Machine (MVM) is an abstract machine model that defines what it means for a Mycelium Expression to be evaluated. It is not necessary to have an MVM implementation in order to send and receive Mycelium Values. A reference implementation of the MVM, written in Go, is available in the mvm1 directory. Here are some fast facts about the MVM: All Values in the MVM are immutable. The MVM models interprocess interactions a ... Read full article.
