We Already Have Go 2

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/programming

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • zig

    General-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.

    My default recommendation and preference is for Rust, but assuming that that doesn't work for you, I think you'd be best-served by Zig. It should meet all of your criteria and then some, with the only caveat is that it's still largely unstable and under churn. it still delivers on its promises far more consistently than V does, though

  • v-mode

    🌻 An Emacs major mode for the V programming language.

    I actually hope vlang turns into a viable alternative.

  • 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.

  • janet

    A dynamic language and bytecode vm

    Try janet https://janet-lang.org/

  • TinyGo

    Go compiler for small places. Microcontrollers, WebAssembly (WASM/WASI), and command-line tools. Based on LLVM.

    Someone pointed out tinygo, which most probably is the solution I'm looking for.
