Nice work, I hope this will eventually be a serious alternative to the JVM route.
Quick question: does this compile down to DOT before going to LLVM? Or has DOT not yet arrived in Scala Native?
- densh 10y agoDOT [1] is a theoretical calculus that is used as a foundation for our latest front-end compiler called dotty [2]. Scala Native is mostly a middle-end technology that bridges front-end compiler and LLVM. We plan to support dotty as a front-end in the future. 0.1 release is based on older Scala 2.11 front-end.
