Another big difference: "Codon is licensed under the Business Source License (BSL), which means its source code is publicly available and it's free for non-production use. ... each version of Codon converts to an actual open source license (specifically, Apache) after 3 years."

- UncleEntity 4y agoCompilers traditionally don’t taint users code with their own license, seems this one does.
- SloopJon 4y agoI don't see any indication that Codon makes any claim to generated code. It's just that the license prohibits production/commercial use of the compiler--not much different than other proprietary compilers like, say, Visual Studio.
