The Carbon folks are very clear that it is nowhere near ready, an experiment, and that it may not even work out. They suggest using Rust if you can.
I think given that context, it makes sense that it’s not here, and when it becomes more real in a few years, it might get reevaluated then.
- pjmlp 3y agoI really don't get where people get the "Carbon is production ready" vibe from.
- steveklabnik 3y agoI don't think they do, specifically, they just know it exists. I am probably one of the most likely people in the world to be tracking what Carbon is up to, yet I only really started paying attention last week. It's hard to keep up with many things.
- pjmlp 3y agoUsually the remarks tend to be as if they already had a compiler ready and were building stuff with it. Meanwhile, the last public talks were about building the frontend.
