Ambitious, humble, honest.
This has been an amazing development led by the mind behind Swift, LLVM and OpenCL. A language compiled to native code on CPU as well as GPU!
And no pretensions about growing the “right” syntax. It has Python’s exact syntax because it is already familiar.
And they just made good on their promise of open-sourcing the full compiler. Hopefully, it has no mandatory dependency on Modular Max which is thier proprietary thing built on Mojo.
Based on what I assume is an AI image there’s a lot of slop involved in this? If so I can’t say I’m particularly excited.
Cursor and Claude? I hope they have good commits for such a task…
The more important headline is below “Qualcomm completes acquisition if Modular” from this July.
And what does this phrase mean:
We will continue to open our processes further as Mojo keeps maturing.
What hasn’t been opensourced yet?
I don’t trust this one bit.
