Description

First off: this is a pretty interesting project. I really like that the ergonomics of using this is similar to Elixir, which obviously is no coincidence given that this is meant to be used with `elixirscript`. Awesome work!

With that being said, I do think there are interesting use cases here independent of `elixirscript`. I'm considering adding Types to this, and was wondering if that seems feasible. Looking at `defmatch.js`, and `match.js`: it definitely seems like it's in the realm of possibility.

Before I do that I was wondering what the status of the project is? Would this be (necessarily) maintained with ongoing development of `elixirscript` itself? Or would you say that `tailored` is pretty much in maintenance mode and is feature complete?

Depending on the status it may be worth holding off on adding types, especially if significant changes are coming.

Research direction

Start by reading defmatch.js and match.js, then determine whether tailored is in maintenance mode or expected to follow ongoing ElixirScript development. The issue does not define a typing scope or acceptance criteria, so first establish whether adding TypeScript types is feasible and what project decision would count as done.
