  • Codon: Python Compiler
    9 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 8 May 2023
    Not to forget CPython's own faster-cpython project which aims at JIT compiling. [0]

    Also JAX[1], PyTorch[2] come with JIT compilation specifically aimed at GPU kernels "fusing" multiple higher-level operation

    And NumPy/Scipy (also) uses Pythran[3], an AOT compiler not too unsimilar to Numba.
