WOW! https://github.com/modularml/mojo

Been looking for something like this, thanks a lot!!!!

Edit: Had a quick look at the docs. Mojo's initial build was published Sep2022, it's fairly young, but seems to be getting a lot of attention (on GitHub they have the same number of stars as mypy 🤯).

For anyone interested, their roadmap is an interested read. They seem to be taking a step-by-step approach, trying first to nail down core features first before moving to stuff like python inter-op and syntactic sugar.

Mojo still doesn’t support classes, the primary thing Python programmers use pervasively! This isn’t because we hate dynamism - quite the opposite. It is because we need to get the core language semantics nailed down before adding them. We expect to provide full support for all the dynamic features in Python classes, and want the right framework to hang that off of.

The "why mojo" section give a lot of background too. They are implementing an ML-IR compiler, which is really promising for optimization (think all the goodies we could use from LLVM).
