Odin isn't getting more features. The syntax is done (twitter.com/jakubtomsu_)

No more features, we just need

new and delete keywords (OOP)

classes, with multiple inheritence

A forced Garbage Collector (and difficult to turn off!)

Exception handling!!!

and finally, extra features that make the code verbosely long!

I am just joking, of course.

Looks like Odin is close to its first stable release! Exciting!


Lisp vibes.


Umm no. Contrast with:

"Foo Lisp is getting more features. The last tweak to the syntax was 13 years ago, though."
