7.1
Relevance Score
Two months into the year, the jank project announced its alpha status, published an official jank book, and detailed multiple C++ interop improvements including an nREPL server and a C++ type DSL. The author described January fixes to premature garbage collection, LLVM 22 private-API and performance regressions (debug startup jumped from 1s to 1m16s), and reworked codegen to restore and improve performance. These changes aim to ease distribution and native AOT builds once LLVM 23 arrives.
