- dmbaggett 10y agoI don't actually know. But porting it would be a huge undertaking.
- jsnell 10y agoIt does.
- breakds 10y agoYes. The core of the backend is still in Common Lisp (and C++). Many ITA hackers are still contributing to the Common Lisp community :)
- phillco 10y agoInteresting -- didn't Google use to be super strict on the languages/runtimes they use in production? Did they make an exception for ITA?
