Haskell - a general-purpose functional language with many unique properties (purely functional, lazy, expressive types, STM, etc). You mentioned you dabbled in Haskell, why not try it again? (I've written about 7 things I learned from Haskell, and my book is linked at them bottom if you're interested :) ). Source: 12 months ago
Where you go is entirely up to you. According to haskell.org, Haskell jobs are a-plenty. sigh. Source: about 1 year ago
Should they be part of haskell.org or something else? Source: over 1 year ago
Haskell.org now has a big purple Get Started button that takes you to a nice short guide (haskell.org/get-started) that quickly provides all the basic info to get going with Haskell. It is aimed for beginners, to reduce choice fatigue and to give them a clear, official path to get going. Source: over 1 year ago
I just jumped into the wiki "Write Yourself a Scheme in 48 hours" which looks pretty good. (although some of the text explanation is hard to understand without context).. I used cabal to set up the starter project. Sublime editor seems to work OK and I just use the git Bash shell on windows to compile the program directly on the command line. So maybe this is all good enough for now (?). It seems installing... Source: over 1 year ago
It's "Zig" not "Zag". https://ziglang.org/ Zig is under heavy development, but there's a single page https://ziglang.org/documentation/0.12.0/ that is a reasonably comprehensive source of truth about the current state of the language. - Source: Hacker News / 15 days ago
When writing code in a scripting language, sometimes you need that extra bit of performance (or maybe an async feature from Zig). - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago
NodeJS is by no means a slow runtime, it wouldn’t be so popular if it was. But compared to Bun, it’s slow. Bun was built from the ground up with speed in mind, using both JavascriptCore and Zig. The Bun team spent an enormous amount of time and energy trying to make Bun fast, including lots of profiling, benchmarking, and optimizations. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago
You may find Zig interesting: https://ziglang.org. The language is not C compatible but the tooling can compile C and C++ without hassle. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
Zig describes itself as "... a general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal and reusable software.". Sounds very generic, eh? - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago
Rust - A safe, concurrent, practical language
Nim (programming language) - The Nim programming language is a concise, fast programming language that compiles to C, C++ and JavaScript.
Python - Python is a clear and powerful object-oriented programming language, comparable to Perl, Ruby, Scheme, or Java.
D (Programming Language) - D is a language with C-like syntax and static typing.
