Exploring biphasic (multi-stage) programming

rybicki.io Exploring biphasic programming: a new approach in language design

I’ve noticed a small but interesting trend in the programming languages space. I’m not sure how novel it is, but this pattern, which I’ll refer to as “biphasic programming,” is characterized by languages and frameworks that enable identical syntax to express computations executed in two distinct pha...

This pattern [(multi-stage programming)], which I'll refer to as "biphasic programming," is characterized by languages and frameworks that enable identical syntax to express computations executed in two distinct phases or environments while maintaining consistent behavior (i.e., semantics) across phases. These phases typically differ temporally (when they run), spatially (where they run), or both.
