Microsoft's Project Tokyo



First let me say that I'm in awe of how Microsoft is on the up and up with having so many software (and overall system) projects in progress. Usually I rarely hear about Microsoft and often hear more about Google or Facebook projects. Maybe even Amazon, but those are usually more hardware related.

Anyhow, I'm super happy to hear about this Project Tokyo! Another great project in the suite of wonder from Microsoft.

Microsoft's Project Verona - New Programming Language Research

I haven't had much time to blog, but had to highlight this.

Microsoft's New Programming Language - Project Verona



This is very interesting to see Microsoft "claim" continuing contribution to the development of Rust but research and develop its own new programming language comparatively to Rust.

Thanks to CodeProject for this update.
