Tooling

Building and structuring projects should feel way like Cargo from the Rust language, at least in the Whack engine.

Configuration ease

Configuring ShockScript projects is way easier compared to other technologies.

Unlike NPM + TypeScript, you do not have to worry about transpilation or whatsoever when building libraries or applications; not even comparable as ShockScript targets WebAssembly. If you were implementing a library in NPM + TypeScript, you were forced to transpile TypeScript to JavaScript first due to the tsconfig.json file which is ignored from third-party dependencies while compiling, otherwise you would get inconsistent transpilation or compiler errors.

Whack case

API documentation

API documentation is automatically built for packages that are published to the Whack package registry.
