TODO

• there is some zero argument application in generated code
• get equality.newt to work
  • broken again because I added J, probably need to constrain scrutinee to value
• inline metas. Maybe zonk after TC/elab
• implicit patterns
• pair syntax (should this be a comma operator)
• list syntax
• operators
• import
• add {{ }} and solving autos (or maybe just auto keyword)
  • considering various solutions. Perhaps marking the data type as solvable, if we had types on metas.
  • keep as implicit and mark auto, behavior overlaps a lot with implicit
  • but we might want to solve right away when creating the implicit
  • later we might need postpone
• do blocks
• some solution for + (classes? ambiguity?)
• show compiler failure in the editor (exit code != 0)
• write js files into out directory
• detect extra clauses in case statements
• add test framework
• decide what to do for erasure
• type at point in vscode
• repl
• LSP
• don't match forced constructors at runtime
  • I think we got this by not switching for single cases
• magic nat (codegen as number with appropriate pattern matching)
• magic tuple? (codegen as array)
• magic newtype? (drop in codegen)
