All big projects have open GitHub issues. You just linked to 500 open and 3000 closed bugs in V. For example, Rust has 8000 open/35000 closed. Yet it's a very mature language. V is very stable for its age. The compiler can build itself since the release (it now has 220k lines of V!) and we have big projects like the Vinix OS written entirely in V, and it can already run GCC/g++ and Doom for example.

Ok, I'll try it out once more. Last I tried it a simple program I wrote using the ui toolkit was crashing for some issue I couldn't quite figure out. Maybe things have substantially improved since.

  I had the same experience. Tried out V a couple of weeks ago because I needed a really simple GUI application. Compiling example code resulted in errors I couldn't understand nor google. I enjoyed playing around with V until that point, but went back to Go and built my stuff with some giant UI library into a 10mb binary that at least worked how it should. I like V though so I will try it out again sometime

    That's strange. All examples are compiled via CI on all systems.

      Maybe that was an error on my end then, early in the morning lying in bed stuff. And iirc the UI library did say it was in an early stage or something like that. (I think you are the author, or at least involved in the language? I don't want to come off as simply bashing your language. Most people here seem to do enough of that... Definitely didn't try it out enough to have any opinion on the advanced features mentioned. I enjoyed the Go-like syntax with different ideas though. So definitely keep going)

        Yes, I'm the author, and indeed the UI is at a very early stage. We'll make it stable this year.

        Best recourse is usually pop into Discord chan into #v-ui-chat or #help and ask about your issue, unless it's a clear bug and then filing an issue first and then referencing it in Discord might be best.
