Features
Safe
Automatically apply and guard resources. Opt into unsafe C only explicitly.
Finite
Tuple-based type system reads sequentially. Less wading through magic.
Fast
Scripting abstractions, minimal memory indirection, ιnterceptable errors get out of the way.
Duck and algebraic types
Functions define types. Interact with those with zero runtime overhead.
Supported
Compiler, LSP, interpreter to test unsafe code, web import, web playground.
