Hi! I’ve created this page to showcase the features of Mint (since there are so many) and their corresponding versions in other similar languages.

    Interesting, but the colours for exceptions are inverted. One of the features that Elm touts on its front page is that it doesn’t have exceptions.

    Structural equality is also debatable.

      I would have also chosen green for “no exceptions”. This is the way.

      As far as I can tell, the table is purely informational and not advocating for any features as being positive or negative.

      Otherwise, yeah the colors make no sense.

        Green is good and red is bad. If that wasn’t the intent they should have used different colours.

          My point is that the colors make so little sense that the only thing that makes sense is to decouple the colors from any meaning.

          This table is so lacking and flawed that I don’t even know why there’s so much discussion around it.
