Key differences between Ada and Janet
| Characteristic | Ada | Janet |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Strongly structured, verbose, Pascal-like syntax with explicit declarations and block structures. | Minimalist, Lisp-like syntax using s-expressions, concise and flexible. |
| Paradigm | Primarily imperative and structured, with strong support for object-oriented and concurrent programming. | Multi-paradigm: functional, imperative, and metaprogramming via macros. |
| Typing | Statically typed with strong type checking at compile time. | Dynamically typed with type checks at runtime. |
| Performance | High performance, suitable for real-time and embedded systems. | Good performance for a scripting language, but generally slower than compiled languages like Ada. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Limited ecosystem, but has libraries for safety-critical and embedded domains. | Smaller ecosystem, but includes a standard library and supports embedding and extension. |
| Community and support | Niche but established community, mainly in aerospace, defense, and safety-critical industries. | Small and growing community, mostly among hobbyists and those interested in scripting and embedding. |
| Learning curve | Steep learning curve due to strictness and verbosity, but good for learning disciplined programming. | Gentle learning curve for those familiar with Lisp, but s-expression syntax may be unfamiliar to others. |
