Specs
Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Simple toolchain
Other languages have complex, multi-step setups that beginners often get stuck on. Red has no installer, no setup, no dependencies*, just a single small (~1MB) command-line executable with both the compiler and repl. On Windows, you don't even have to launch executable from the command line--it has a GUI-console.
Pro Very simple syntax
Red syntax is a lot like Rebol. It's easier than most languages for beginners to pick up.
Pro Both low and high-level
Red has low enough access to do systems programming, but it's expressive enough for high-level scripting.
Pro Low cognitive load
Red has very simple syntax that's easy to learn. It gets out of your way and lets you think about the problem instead, enhancing productivity.
Pro Uses Vue.js 2.0
Vue 3.x available as a plugin.
Pro Good documentation and coding samples
Pro Massive suite of well test & optimized widgets
Instant rebuild for SPA, PWA, Cordova or Electron with Material/iOS Themes.
Pro Designed from the outset for desktop & mobile
Pro Can build/test your PWA with/without PWA wrapper
Pro Supports server side rendering (SSR) like Nuxt + SSR/PWA
"Icon genie" builds app icons and splash images for platforms selected.
Pro Ability to add custom server side code when using SSR
Cons
Con Not production ready
Red is still under development and not considered stable.
Con Still in beta
It mostly works. It's good enough for building usable applications, but some planned features are missing.
Con Developed by a single person
Statistically, apps being developed by a single person can be gone without warning.
