Cool! I've translated it from Rust to V in 45 minutes. Works great: https://github.com/medvednikov/libjs_v Compiles in 0.2 seconds on my M5 (compared to Rust's 3.3 seconds).

The code you pasted doesn't compile, so it's you who are lying. Can you link to the promised autofree without GC?

> For me the biggest gap in programming languages is a rust like language with a garbage collector, instead of a borrow checker. https://vlang.io GC, sum types, result/option types, interfaces, no OOP, fast compilation.

Such discussions are always the same. You say there are lots of issues, but can never list one. And you point to articles that complain about V using libc or that C2V was released in 2022 and not earlier. It's 2025! Our documentation i

Good point. I'll add the homebrew installation method. Maybe some other popular package managers. V is very easy to install from source and to bootstrap. And it changes fast. So we're not big fans of package managers yet.
