I'm trying to decide the best voice for PL documentation.
Passive: "`let` can be used with destructuring."
Reader focused: "You can use `let` with destructuring."
Describing the PL: "FooLang supports destructuring with `let`."
Anyone have opinions or best practices?
I really like pattern matching in Rust, but I find myself using it less and less.
`if let` and `let ... else` require substantially less indentation, and I often use them for Option values.
I don't miss this syntactic sugar in OCaml though. Maybe it's just because OCaml has a 2 space indent, unlike Rust's 4 space indent?
I've been building an 'extract function' refactor feature. It's surprisingly nuanced.
Where do you put the extracted function? Once you've done the static analysis, what order do you use for the parameters?
