Port to other languages

[dvf]

It would be nice to see the same implementation in some popular languages:

JavaScript, TypeScript, C#, Go.

Any takers?

[jayuuza]

I'll do it in c#

I can experiment with either the JavaScript or Go versions. A couple of days ago I thought of implementing it in Rust.

[HintikkaKimmo]

I am planning to create a Go version, but it might be ugly. I am just learning Go and as I am also interested on Blockchains this seems like a nice project

[ghost]

@HintikkaKimmo I can give you a hand if you need it, but since you want to do Go I'll do JS.

[dvf]

@conmarap Rust is awesome!

Let's put the implementations in top level folders: /rust, /python, /csharp, golang etc...

[not-a-muggle]

I'll try to get it done in Node.

[crisadamo]

@dvf I already made a PR with a GO implementation.

Looking forward to the JS implementation, as I'm learning javascript and blockchain it would be an awesome project for studying purposes! Many thanks to everyone for putting in the effort.

I'll look into it (JS) this weekend, if nobody beats me to it. Otherwise I can do a different language.

[dvf]

It looks like there's a few pulls in other languages! 🍾

Unfortunately I'm not an expert in all of them (or even some of them). It would be great if folks would help out by reviewing.

[mixartemev]

I started make it on php implemented on Yii2 Framework

[stevenpack]

I've done rust https://github.com/stevenpack/learnnet.

How do you want to do it @dvf? Accept PRs into a top level folder? Or just have a file with links to the relevant repo's?

Also FYI @conmarap

[bbiskup]

I'm working on a C++ version (early stages; no tests yet).

[hskang9]

I have done it on Javascript here!

[hskang9]

However, you need to merge my PR before I make new one for this.

[ReyHaynes]

@hskang9 Good job on the JS port!

[TerribleDev]

@dvf would a fortran implementation be welcomed?

If you make a port, please make a PR linking to it in the README file instead of including it in the repo.
