    Terra is a low-level system programming language that is embedded in and meta-programmed by the Lua programming language.

  • zig

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

    Yeah Zig does a slightly constrained version of this by allowing you to run functions at compile time that deal with types. You can define an entirely new struct type and return it from a function. This allows fully programmable generics. A DSL for generics is probably what C++ will head towards in the future. I think the perspective brought forth by Terra is an interesting one and I'd love to see where the language goes in the future.

  • 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.

  • nelua-lang

    Minimal, efficient, statically-typed and meta-programmable systems programming language heavily inspired by Lua, which compiles to C and native code.

    Also, very similar to Nelua, what are the main differences (optional GC in Nelua seems to be an obvious one)?
