    Great idea and I love the effort put into it.

    The method of install is very dodgy for linux though [1]

        curl -sSL http://get.wasp-lang.dev | sh
    It seems to require nodejs, so why is this not an npm package?

    Also the logo should be a wasp!

    Hi HN! Together with my brother I've been developing Wasp - a language for building web apps with as little boilerplate as possible. It is open-source and integrates with React/Node.js/Prisma. We just released Alpha and are looking for testers and contributors.

    Thanks for any feedback and comments!

    Zero lock in is the killer feature for me

    I also like that you can edit the wasp file and the app regenerates live in the local environment, feels super fluid
