I work on Mojo. The whole compiler, runtime etc. will get open sourced, most likely within a year. It is just a matter of time and us getting all the required work done.

- almostgotcaught 1y ago> runtime Are you talking about your libc equivalent or MAX?
- dgurchenkov 1y agoBoth. Mojo standard library is already open source. Mojo at the moment does not need a runtime (but if it ever needs one it'd get open sourced). My point was, Mojo as a whole, as a programming language & a reference implementation, will definitely get open sourced. MAX itself is a bigger beast to work with, and I am out of my depth to talk about it. I think it'll get open sourced as well, just the timeline might be different (shorter or longer, IDK).
- xiphias2 1y ago,,will get open sourced'' means closed source, parent wrote the same
- GeekyBear 1y agoChris Lattner (the CEO of Modular) was previously the technical lead behind the creation of LLVM, Clang and Swift, all of which were open sourced. He has a bit of a track record already.
- xiphias2 1y agoSure, but at that time he was employed by Apple for example. Now he's making a for profit company and there's already MAX and MAX Enterprise stuff to not trust that the open source part would be competitive with already great inferencing frameworks for example.
