  Dapr is a portable, event-driven, runtime for building distributed applications across cloud and edge.

  

Looks nice. I've been recently looking for an expressive language to make an experiment combining two approaches to "cloud native" programming: something like Ballerina[0] combined with something like Dapr[1].

For example: when I instantiate a queue, I get one from my cloud provider, or my local Redis, or my custom C++ implementation. That way, my code would represent my intent, and the actual building pieces could be switched from environment to environment.

Dapr is already pretty close to this, but it's still a little verbose and low level compared to "normal" local programming. Maybe I'll experiment with Passerine for this, since it looks easy enough to tweak with Rust.
