There's much more recent work here: https://github.com/tshort/StaticCompiler.jl/pull/46 https://github.com/tshort/StaticCompiler.jl/pull/46 and apparently some more is still ongoing privately.
That said, yeah. I would not recommend Julia currently for people who truly believe they need AOT compilation, and that they need to trigger AOT compilation very often and with low friction. That definitely needs more work, but it's happening.
That said, a lot of people overestimate how much they actually need AOT compilation.
Julia has some fantastic tooling in other areas though. Especially the package management and interactive analysis tools.
