Key differences between Grain and Carbon
| Characteristic | Grain | Carbon |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Grain uses a syntax inspired by OCaml and ReasonML, featuring pattern matching, type inference, and functional constructs. | Carbon's syntax is designed to be familiar to C++ developers, with modern improvements for readability and safety. |
| Paradigm | Primarily functional, with strong support for immutability and functional programming patterns. | Multi-paradigm, supporting both procedural and object-oriented programming, with a focus on modern C++-like features. |
| Typing | Statically typed with type inference, similar to ML-family languages. | Statically typed, with a focus on type safety and explicitness, similar to C++. |
| Performance | Compiles to WebAssembly, offering good performance for web and some server-side applications, but not as fast as native code. | Aims for high performance, compiling to native code and targeting use cases where C++ is used. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Limited ecosystem, with a growing but small set of libraries focused on WebAssembly and functional programming. | Ecosystem is nascent, but aims for interoperability with C++ libraries and tools. |
| Community and support | Small but active community, mostly centered around WebAssembly enthusiasts and functional programmers. | Backed by Google and has attracted interest from the C++ community, but still early in development. |
| Learning curve | Moderate to steep for those unfamiliar with functional programming or ML-like syntax. | Easier for C++ developers to pick up, but may be challenging for those new to systems programming. |
