> There's an experimental C++ back-end to PureScript now [0]. I wonder if that will ever be a viable production target?

Obligatory reminder to anyone enjoying PureScript so much they want to compile it to executable binaries for their backend work (instead of Node or such) --- I'm still hacking along on my PureScript-to-Golang trans/compiler (GH to follow in profile if interested). Unlike most alternative backends (to date) it's not a parallel fork of the purs compiler but works off the official purs compiler's `--dump`ed intermediate-representation files. Seemed more tractable to me to do it that way.
