Would you say the reason for choosing it are not inherent to the lang itself but to things like: experience of the team, availability of libraries/ecosystem, need for mature/fast compilers?
- wffurr 7y agoCan't speak for parent, but in our case it's the only choice with zero-overhead abstractions and good cross platform support (Obj-C++, Android NDK, WebAssembly, Linux for tests). I wish Rust were there, but it's not.
- DubiousPusher 7y agoExactly. I remember having discussions with folks about using D for games like 10 years ago and it's never gotten there either.
