There is also many compile to Go languages today, that add many befefits from the MLs with still 100% Go interrop. I would say lisette is probably the one that has most momentum right now.
Does homebrew still do that insane thing when you want to upgrade a single package it tell you "hold my beer" and starts installing postgres and some obscure python version?
People seem to miss entirely that this is not (only) some slop code that makes github go down, but its the fact that they get 100x the number of requests since AI tools came to the devs daily workflow.
This is REALLY GOOD news for every passive investor. They try to game the system with this one, big time. There should be hearings about this, and new laws need to put in place to prevent something like this.
I have large doc file from a feature and everytime i tell claude to do something (read it) it consumes a shitton of tokens. Better to have small focused facts for ai instead.
Theres is also gleam that did this "upfront", and actully has a decent type system, im not sure if this effort is that relevant. On the flipside this is a good effort nontheless. For go there is also lisette (https://github.com/ivov/lisette/) that has a very similar dev-exp to gleam. As a bonus you get all the goodies if go and a static binary.
Lots of stuff happening in the language space at the moment.
