What is the MIME type of F#?

What is the standard mime type of an .fs or .fsx file? Is it ok to use text/x-fsharp or text/fsharp?

EDIT: By standard MIME type I meant something that F# software foundation suggests to use (if they do), not IANA.

P.S. I know there are text/x-python and application/x-python-code for Python. Deno uses application/typescript for TS. But couldn't find anything for F# files.

There's no need for an F# mime type*. Standard MIME types are governed by IANA (python and typescript are not standard) as used by browsers. text/plain is sufficient.

In Debian systems, you can create your own "mime" types to add icons to your file extensions. You could create your own text/x-fsharp if you fancy.

If you what you wanted is to be able to autorun fsx scripts in Linux just add:

 #!/usr/bin/env dotnet fsi

to the top of your script file and make it executable

chmod +x file.fsx
