Key differences between Java and Carbon

CharacteristicJavaCarbon
SyntaxC-style syntax with verbose structure, uses curly braces and semicolons, object-oriented focus.C++-inspired syntax, designed for easier migration from C++, aims for clarity and modern features.
ParadigmPrimarily object-oriented, supports imperative and limited functional programming.Multi-paradigm, supports object-oriented, generic, and functional programming, with a focus on modern C++ paradigms.
TypingStatically typed, strong type checking at compile time.Statically typed, with modern type inference and strong type safety.
PerformanceRuns on the JVM, performance is good but can be limited by garbage collection and abstraction overhead.Aims for performance similar to or better than C++, with direct compilation to native code and low-level control.
Libraries and frameworksExtensive standard library and mature ecosystem of frameworks for web, enterprise, and mobile development.Currently limited, but designed for interoperability with C++ libraries; ecosystem is in early stages.
Community and supportLarge, mature global community with extensive documentation, forums, and long-term support.Emerging community, primarily driven by early adopters and contributors; limited support and resources.
Learning curveModerate; well-documented with many learning resources, but can be verbose for beginners.Potentially steep, especially for those unfamiliar with C++ concepts; documentation and resources are limited.
