Roc RFCs

RFC (Request for comments) are a structured way to discuss potential changes to the Roc language, ecosystem, or implementation.

Creating an RFC

The RFC process is in its infancy. Before creating an RFC, please create a thread to discuss a topic of interest on Zulip. The Roc community is most active on Zulip, making it the best forum for ideation.

RFCs added to this repository should motivate problems that require substantial analysis to come up with an ideal solution. RFCs should explain a problem clearly, provide alternatives, and propose a solution.

Naming

RFCs are named <number>-<descriptive-name>.md in the rfcs/ directory.

The RFC number 0000 is reserved.

RFCs numbered less than 0100 are reserved for backfilling existing decisions to the Roc language.

A new RFC should use the next number larger than 0100 not already in use.
