Thanks for the great explanation. Do you know how it plans to handle dependencies? Is it expected to work on embedded platforms like Cortex-M? It's nice seeing a mix of modern systems languages: Zig, Rust, Jai. All seem very well designed and promising. |

- I think it will not support any platform that is less than 64 bits.
- I think the preferred way will be to explicitly host the dependency in your repository. What ever the language does to help with dependency management will probably be geared towards that direction. Code bases are expected to be self contained. Once you checkout the code from your version control system, you should not need to download an additional thing from the internet to build.
That said, there is a video where Jon talked at length about his plans for dependency management, but it was more of an information discussion than a concrete plan. It is from 3 years ago (2018.01)
