Agree with this, Zig and Jai seems to be the most ergonomic in this area (types can be checked and manipulated in compile time as easy as values in runtime). But what I’ve mentioned is also very related to the ergonomics of compile-time metaprogramming, since these techniques are all useless if it severely increases builds times up to the point that developers have to use it sparingly. Only Nim and Jai has fully gone the route of using a bytecode VM for compile-time evaluation, while D had a similar project back in 2017 that was abandoned, and for other languages (C++, Zig, etc.) it’s still in the planning stage. |
