  What makes the Elements compiler just a toy in your opinion?

    The biggest limitation I saw was no support for the .NET base class libraries at all, which not only makes for some strange looking C# but also rules out using any of the existing 3rd party .NET libraries out there. They market this as an advantage but I'm not convinced.

    What he demonstrated is basic cross compilation techniques. There is nothing new or novel about this. You are hardly going to be able to build a full future app with exclusive Swift for the android using that method without a lot of tears, sweat, blood and effort.
