TODO

I may be done with U - I keep typing Type.

• switch from commit/mustWork to checking progress
• type constructors are no longer generated? And seem to have 0 arity.
• raw let is not yet implemented (although define used by case tree building)
• 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
• operators
• pair syntax (via comma operator)
• matching on operators
• SKIP list syntax
  • Agda doesn't have it, clashes with pair syntax
• import
• autos / typeclass resolution
  • keep as implicit and do auto if the type constructor is flagged auto
  • keep as implicit and mark auto, behavior overlaps a lot with implicit
  • have separate type of implict with {{}}
  • Can we solve right away when creating the implicit, or do we need postpone?
• do blocks
• some solution for + problem (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)
• records / copatterns
