What was the other one?
I'm working on a language that transpiles to Zig with a custom Go-like runtime (and no garbage collector, Rust-style Affine movement instead).
Sky seems quite cool, as it's additive to Go in interesting ways.
I originally considered keeping the GC and just transpiling to Go so I didn't need to write a Runtime.
Go rules! It really does. But I HATE writing/reading Go.
So I'm glad more people are doing this!
I understand the motivation as I don't really like writing Go code. Interestingly, I don't mind reading it though (as long as the if err != nil isn't too exhausting).
A transpilation step though? I'll accept that in Typescript (barely) but not for any other language really.

Awesome, this is very close to what I originally considered.
