Overview
Carbon is an experimental programming language proposed as a successor to C++. This is its main repository, holding the design documents, the implementation and related tools. The goals are performance matching C++ through LLVM, interoperation with existing C++ code, and a language that is easy to learn and upgrade with tools. The README states that Carbon is not ready for use.
Key features
- Aims for C++ level performance using LLVM
- Interoperates with existing C++ code
- Tool-based upgrades between Carbon versions
- Incremental path toward a memory-safe subset
Best for
Language enthusiasts and C++ developers who want to follow or contribute to the design. It is experimental and not ready for real projects.
