I think it's a case of deciding to focus the innovation budget somewhere else. Claro on the surface level looks a lot like Go, and it's probably intentional. Crafting an unique syntax, making sure it's efficiently parseable, and nice to use is a whole lot of effort, and the solutions we have today in this space are basically fine.
Claro seems to focus its efforts elsewhere - the main innovation seems to be its graph-based multithreaded work scheduling which is a novel concept, and has major implications for program organization, just not syntax.
- jasonsteving 3y agoThanks, this is exactly how I'm thinking about this! And actually, beyond just having a certain "innovation budget" (which is true) I also just personally want a language that's aggressively simple (a subjective measure). I'm trying hard to make something that will fit in my head in the end.
