> You are supposed to do as much programming as you can in the high level language, and only drop into the low level language as needed.

I think that's a neat idea, but in the reverse: do as much as you can in the lower level language, and only go up to the high level language when the convenience is worth the cost.

Roc allows this: every program has a platform written in a low-level language, and then the Roc program uses the API that the platform exposes.

Then how you want to balance high vs low is of course up to you :^)

roc lang looks very interesting, I see they use a lot of Zig and Rust, very unusual combo I think.

I think they are switching from Rust to Zig. I don’t recall exactly, but they talked about it in a video where the creator of Roc interviewed the creator of Zig.
