🏳 No types

[hejny]

There are no types in Promptbook, everything is just string / text. This simplifies a lot of things and reduces complexity.

• There is no null, undefined, NaN etc, just empty string.
• There are no numbers, integers, floats,... but numeric-like values work perfectly.
• There are no booleans, but true / false values are a thing
• There are no arrays, objects, tables and other data structures, you can use formats or iterations to look at strings with more structure.
• There are no images, audio and video, but maybe there should be.
• There will probably be a different view of the type system 🌏 Linguistically typed languages
