Proper arrays in Stylus

Now we have hashes and it seems obvious that we need a support or proper arrays.

Stylus already have lists, but they’re not the best fit for the job.

There are already a lot of problems with the usage of the lists as arrays, and fixing some of them would break the backwards compatibility, as some of the bugs could be misused as features for a long time.

So, I think it would make sense to create a new data type — Array.

I wonder if I should explain the details of implementation here, as it could would the same arrays work in other languages like js:

foo = [10px, 20px, 40px]

foo[1]

// => 20px

The only conflicts I can see are with attribute selectors and cases when we have an array consisting of the only number, like [10]: but they all seem to be handable.

Still waiting on this, such a useful feature

@FranzSkuffka which version of Stylus have you used? You can use push function (it should work in 0.52.0):

someArray = ('hey')
push(someArray, 'yo')

body
  test: someArray[0] // 'hey'
  test: someArray[1] // 'yo'
