I am an OpenEdge (aka Progress) developer that loves clean code and good looking applications that are easy to use. My main pet project is the Progress DataDigger
I like these posts on programming languages. Most of them I have never heard of. Do you take suggestions btw? I'd like to see how Progress 4GL compares in this list. Progress (or "OpenEdge" which is its newer name) is a database + 4GL language that has been around since the eighties. It supports procedural style code but OO as well. It is mainly used for business application.
I only have a couple episodes planned at a time, so suggestions are welcome.
I've never heard of Progress 4GL. As I'm doing one of these a day, I mostly limit it to languages which I can install on OSX with one brew command, and which have enough documentation that I can google my way out of any problems. There's some languages (like PowerShell and SAS) that's been waiting on the list for long as it's some hassle to run them on a Mac.
