Modules and Imports

• carbon-lang

  174 32,232 9.8 C++

  Carbon Language's main repository: documents, design, implementation, and related tools. (NOTE: Carbon Language is experimental; see README)

  

Anyway, have you heard about make? It is an (almost) standard piece of software that has existed for 47 years and should help solve some of those problems. Java's classpath also comes to mind. You can also look at PSR-4 and Carbon's approach where an imported path matches some filesystem path which is not necessarily relative, allowing you to name some path and then import relatively to it (eg. you tell the compiler that Acme=/usr/includes/Acme and then importing Acme.Parsers.Ini looks for /usr/includes/Acme/Parsers/Ini.owlisp). Also look at Java Modules and Rust Crates.

• gluon

  14 3,119 7.6 Rust

  A static, type inferred and embeddable language written in Rust. (by gluon-lang)

  

Some languages, like Zig and Gluon have an import expression, where the imported symbols are under a local constant's name. Gluon then also supports destructuring, and Zig has had multiple proposals for years about it, none of which are canon. That is, code like this:
