Hello again,
Following my little previous research on Chapel Online idea, I have also
requested ideone to know if there is any chance of getting it there.
Following is the reply I got from them,
" Hello Swathy,
Thank you for your suggestion. We have added Chapel to the community
wishlist :) Unfortunately, we finished maintenance of our languages
database recently (about a month ago). The next maintenance is planned to
the Q3 or Q4 of this year. We will consider adding Chapel during the next
maintenance :)
Unfortunately, our infrastructure disallows such collaboration with
open-source enthusiasts. "
I would like to know if mentors are interested to go ahead with a docker
style of implementation (that I shared in my last e-mail) for Chapel online
idea that may be tied to an improved learning website that can help newbies
to learn Chapel.
I would love to hear your thoughts on this that will help me to make some
progress
Regards and Thanks,
Swathy.
