Can anyone proficient with this kind of language comment on how useful it is compared to a more vanilla imperative language? It seems like it's designed for control systems, which is largely about correctly implementing large state machines. Are there problems that are incredibly difficult to manage without a language like dezyne? Outside of control and state machines, are there other domains it excels in?
Sounds like formal verification is built into the language, which sounds nice for people who care!
Given this is spitting out C++ code, it could be that the ideal way of using this is to write your state machines with this, then use the output in a more traditional setup.
every app is big hierarchical state machine. from app using mechanical enginering devices to cenralized perpertual trading orderbook to networked game world state management middleware.
Is there a hello world somewhere? The home page just has release announcements, and I'm not quite interested enough to read the manual.

Smells like Swift to me; too much specialization, everything reads like a contract.

Sounds like plan! Sign me up.
