  • Not sure if this is what OP is seeking, but I would be fine to have borrow checker removed, replaced with Garbage collector like Go/Python in such a language.

    To build prototypes, I don't want to fight with borrow checker and neither I care for efficiency much. But I do want the macro system, traits, lazily asynchronous runtime, cargo like package manager, easy build system, etc.

    Rust has so many powerful features, but only because of borrow checker (IMO) we can't use it for rapid prototyping like Python. With that replaced, this subset of Rust would be something which can be a great contender to Python/Go, etc.








  • I want my devices to run on an OS/framework which allows everything to be scriptable. Data should be visualised using simple/consistent interface.

    There will be events, Actions, variables, data-streams, etc and the operating system should provide easy interface to quickly create new programs which can

    1. Visualize data streams (filterable) using simple interfaces(configurable)
    2. Create scripts which can create custom events or custom actions which are just built upon existing events/actions.

    In such a system, the focus of apps should not be to add fancy interfaces for simple things, but to register new events, actions, data streams, visualizers into the OS and maybe provide new templates to use these additions.
