As a fan of both visual programming and Haskell, I definitely think this is the future of programming, and I can see it going two ways - A general purpose tool like https://nodered.org with a huge library of plugins or included in a host program as a VM/embedded DSL. Or perhaps both ;) What are the developers plans/thoughts on this?

Luna is very much a general-purpose programming language! We’re working on developing both the language and the libraries ecosystem until you can use it for whatever you’d like.

While data-analysis is our focus at the moment, that isn’t due to any current limitation on Luna the language. We still have more we want to do to the language, but there is nothing stopping you from writing whatever you want in it now!

Looks cool - Considering your data-analysis focus, will you be adding: SQL language interop, Postgres data source component/nodes for functions(critical for me)/ views /tables? Would then become much more interesting.

Can you expand more on what you mean here? We currently have a work-in-progress library for binding to Postgres, but I have the feeling that isn’t quite what you’re getting at.
