---|---|---|
Syntax | Clean, minimal, inspired by Smalltalk and Lua; uses curly braces and dot notation. | C#-like syntax, similar to modern object-oriented languages; uses curly braces and semicolons. |
Paradigm | Object-oriented, with some functional features. | Object-oriented, designed for GObject-based development; supports imperative and some functional programming. |
Typing | Dynamically typed. | Statically typed. |
Performance | Interpreted, generally slower than compiled languages; suitable for scripting and embedding. | Compiled to C, then to native code; performance close to C. |
Libraries and frameworks | Minimal standard library; limited third-party libraries. | Access to GNOME and GObject libraries; can use C libraries easily. |
Community and support | Small, niche community; limited resources and support. | Moderate community, especially within GNOME ecosystem; more resources than Wren. |
