That's fair. We don't talk about it in here because there was already way too much to discuss, but we've done a few non-trivial things in Eve. All of the inspector interactions are actually written in Eve [1], as is the program analyzer that provides the intelligence to make it work [2]. An important thing to keep in mind as well is that Eve does a lot with very little. 10kLoC of Eve would implement most systems twice over. So the programs will always be pretty short.

The intent is to handle anything you could imagine writing in python. As this is 0.2.0 of a language pretty unlike anything currently mainstream, we're nowhere near there, but with engineering there's no reason we can't be. The IDE is only one portion of the story here, the languge is another one. It's a variant of Datalog that has far reaching implications on how we can work in teams (global correctness), how software evolves (complete compositionality), and how we think about larger scale systems (orderless and distributed). The latter will be the highlight of our second milestone where we'll do another big release like this one, but for the rest we'll be doing deep dives over the next couple weeks about how we believe this language scales much better to the realities of software today.

More is coming. :)
