oasis VS c3c

You reminded me for trying Oasis: https://github.com/oasislinux/oasis

IMO, would eliminate issues with glibc and other libraries breaking ABI compatibility. Statically-linked distros like oasis could be used as inspiration.

Oasis and its native desktop Velox.

I wonder why suckless team chose to build its browser on webkit2gtk instead of NetSurf, things like these and others like their adherence to Xorg makes me think seriously to move to Framebuffer (fbpad, fbpdf, fbff ..) or Oasis (Wayland + SWC + Velox).

When you say a fork of LLVM, am I correct in assuming that you specifically mean a fork of Clang? I don't see how the compiler backend would affect support for language extensions, regardless of whether it's an exception to that such as Tcc, Cproc, the MIR C jitter, lacc, 8cc, 9cc, and chibicc. Most of those are not for production, excluding Cproc and Tcc (at least according to Suckless or Oasis).

C3, "The C-like for people who like C" just reached v0.5, marking its feature-stable release: https://c3.handmade.network/blog/p/8824-say_hello_to_c3_0.5

Feature stability ensures that version 0.5 will undergo bug fixes and maintenance separately from the main branch, providing projects with a stable compiler version to work with.

Try it out in the browser https://learn-c3.org

If you appreciate C, then maybe this is a language you'll enjoy. Dive into the documentation at https://c3-lang.org to view examples and read more in depth about the language.

Tuples are being discussed, although I am unsure if it would be sufficiently useful. (Discussion here and here if you want to leave some thoughts)

I've been trying to build c3lang on my local machine. The problem is that it requires static files for both llvm and lld. Now, the static files for llvm have been provided (llvm-static), but not for lld, at least that's what I think. I thought that maybe I've made a mistake somewhere by not search the package thoroughly. I just wanted to know what package will install static files for lld.

So (preferably) have a little look at the language (https://c3-lang.org/) and maybe try it out (https://learn-c3.org/) and then file whatever issue you want: https://github.com/c3lang/c3c/issues/new

> I wish we had C+: C + a few niceties (and not C ++ everything). There's a whole bunch of newer languages aiming at the space C is sitting in, but with a few additions C could be much more ergonomic without having to invent an entire new language.

I’ve made a pre-processor for C to add some things I miss, although it is currently limited to what can be done without type information and has to keep compatibility with existing C syntax: https://sentido-labs.com/en/library/cedro/202106171400/

There is another language call C3 that “is a C-like language striving to be an evolution of C, rather than a completely new language”: https://github.com/c3lang/c3c

If you have the time, I’d like to hear which things you miss in C. There might be something I did not imagine that could be added to Cedro.

Off the top of my head, cc99 and c3 are two C dialects that both can do this.
