The second someone makes a successor language that seamlessly/directly interops with C++ _AND_ has the level of build/IDE tooling that C++/Rust have, I'm on boa

The second someone makes a successor language that seamlessly/directly interops with C++ _AND_ has the level of build/IDE tooling that C++/Rust have, I'm on board.
The closest thing right now is Sean Baxter's "Circle" compiler in "Carbon" mode IMO:
https://github.com/seanbaxter/circle/blob/master/new-circle/README.md https://github.com/seanbaxter/circle/blob/master/new-circle/...
Unfortunately, Circle is closed-source and there's no LSP or other tooling to make the authoring experience nice.
- pjmlp 3y agoI also see Circle as the most promisor C++ wannabe, from all the contenders, and it being closed-source, once upon a time all major compilers were, so lets see.
