    The compiler is available for download. Get it!

    Note that Circle is not an F/OSS compiler as someone pointed out before. This however doesn't make Circle less relevant, because it is actually a testament to show that C++ could have been much better without the claimed breakage. If Circle does provide a number of desirable features and its compiler can be built by a single person, then why shouldn't the committee do the same?

  • cppfront

    A personal experimental C++ Syntax 2 -> Syntax 1 compiler

  • I had the same vibes with Herb Sutter's cppfront. It offers full source compatibility by introducing a new syntax that can be mixed freely with the traditional syntax. Seems like it's actively being worked on here https://github.com/hsutter/cppfront.

    I've not looked at Circle in depth. Do you or anyone else have a perspective on how they compare?

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
