Looking at their front page, they have the following distinguishing goals: Simplicity, speed, modern, pleasant. Is there _any_ language that doesn't aim for those four things? I have no idea why I'd choose Odin.
- gingerBill 3y agoMany languages don't aim for that. As it states on the front page: > Odin is a general-purpose programming language with distinct typing built for high performance, modern systems and data-oriented programming. > Odin is the C alternative for the Joy of Programming. So if you have a problem that would have traditionally use C (or even C++), then Odin provides a more modern approach built for modern systems and higher control over low-level things such as memory, memory layout, memory access, and custom allocators.
