  • cosmopolitan

    build-once run-anywhere c library

  • Nim, or "Cosmopolitan" https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan

  • go

    The Go programming language

  • Quarkus

    Quarkus: Supersonic Subatomic Java.

  • Not sure when you played with the JVM last, but it's now way past its gas guzzling days. I mean, you could still create a Java power-hog if you wanted to, but when it comes to microservices, most people go native these days: https://quarkus.io/ (it still surprises me that many people don't know that Java native has been a viable option for a few years now). The last Java project I worked on, compiles to a native binary in under 2 mins and runs at a performance level, comparable to that of a Go or a Rust app (given the network latency)

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
