Key differences between Elm and Carbon
| Characteristic | Elm | Carbon |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Clean, functional, Haskell-inspired syntax with significant whitespace and no semicolons. | C++-like syntax designed for familiarity to C++ developers, with modern enhancements. |
| Paradigm | Purely functional, declarative, and focused on immutability. | Multi-paradigm, primarily imperative and object-oriented, with support for generic programming. |
| Typing | Statically typed with strong type inference and no null or runtime exceptions. | Statically typed with a focus on safety and interoperability with C++. |
| Performance | Compiles to efficient JavaScript for web applications; performance is good for UI but not suitable for system-level tasks. | Aims for high performance comparable to C++, suitable for system-level and performance-critical applications. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Smaller ecosystem focused on web development, with a curated package repository. | Ecosystem is nascent; aims for compatibility with C++ libraries and tools. |
| Community and support | Small but active community, mainly in web development; official support and resources are limited. | Very early-stage community, mostly experimental, with backing from Google and some open-source contributors. |
| Learning curve | Steep for those new to functional programming, but simplified by helpful compiler messages. | Designed to be approachable for C++ developers; learning curve depends on familiarity with C++ concepts. |
