Re: I will mention just created lexers in this topic
Lexer ReScript was just added. it is strongly typed language, which compiles to JS. VSCode extension has 25K downloads so it is popular.

Granule-project. functional language. Github repo is OK, many stars.... but VSCode extension has 85 downloads since 1/6/2022. not popular!
so I did not make lexer.

Re: I will mention just created lexers in this topic
lexer 'Roc' was created just today.
it is functional language.
lexer has indent-based folding, I had hard times to setup it, and some folding issues are not fixed yet...

Re: I will mention just created lexers in this topic
lexer 'Pkl' was created.
It is special config-like format from Apple.
But not popular, even if from Apple.
Code-tree: shows only 'class' items, I am not sure what other items to show: 'function' items maybe? 'function' items don't have a body {...} in my testfiles (repo of Pkl from Github). so not sure we need functions items in tree.

Re: I will mention just created lexers in this topic
lexer Gleam was made today.
>>Gleam is a friendly language for building type-safe systems that scale! The power of a type system, the expressiveness of functional programming, and the reliability of the highly concurrent, fault tolerant Erlang runtime, with a familiar and modern syntax.
the most hard part was to consider all weird operators, e.g. '>=.' (3 chars), '#(' .
code-tree shows funcs as 1 level, without nesting currently.

Re: I will mention just created lexers in this topic
lexer 'PureScript' was made today.
>>PureScript is a strongly-typed, purely-functional programming language that transpiles to JavaScript, C++11, Erlang, and Go. It can be used to develop web applications, server side apps, and also desktop applications with use of Electron or via C++11 and Go compilers with suitable libraries.
the lexer creation was simple, with one hard part: getting all std-function names from SublimeText lexer. lot and lot of std-functions.

Re: I will mention just created lexers in this topic
lexer Ziggy was just made.
site: https://ziggy-lang.io
I see that site is very good and lang is promising.

Re: I will mention just created lexers in this topic
lexer Ring was published.
it has very poor design regarding func definitions:
1. func block with optional 'end' keyword. if 'end' is missed, seems we need to detect block end by additional 'return' keyword. or by file end.
2. func block with {} brackets.
() brackets in 'func' line can be present or not (e.g. present in matrixlib.ring). bad!
class-blocks have ending keyword or not? or they are based on indent? brackets {} can exist?
I cannot invent rules for this design, so 'func'/'class' blocks are not folded at all.
lang docs cannot say about multi-line strings (if possible, for what quote chars?). and cannot say about escape-char in strings.
github 'issues' are disabled for Ring repo. maybe authors know that they fail too often.
EDIT: I got replies from one developer so I added the folding for 'func'/'class'. only for the case func is ended by 'return' or another func (case of {} is not handled).
