I'm using Rebol to create a dialect for content management on my new web site.
It's a hard slog, but it is all coming together, and I have lots of moments when I suddenly realise why Rebol does something the way it does.
It is a nice feeling.
I could have done something quicker in PHP, sure, but at the end I would have this big pile of code to maintain.
With Rebol I find functionality increasing quickly while the code size grows very slowly.
It may all be worth it after all :rolleyes:

It gets easier. It took me a while for things to click too, but "the REBOL way" is much more natural for me now.

You may still end up with a big pile of code (over at REBOL.org there are 120 scripts to run the site). But they are all small, and pretty simple to understand in isolation (or so I claim!). Watch this thread grow over at Webmaster world: Top 100 signs that I am writing spaghetti code in PHP....Not that you can't write spaghetti code in REBOL that is incomprehensible to others, it's just you need a different set of signs  Sunanda

....Not that you can't write spaghetti code in REBOL that is incomprehensible to others, it's just you need a different set of signs I think the main difference is that REBOL allows for a much higher level of abstraction.
