For Glue, Janet is probably the biggest one right now. I am working on something, but it will take a long time.



I remember looking at Janet and quite liking it, clean neat and small.

...but then, I'm heavily invested into Python and it wasn't clear to me where Janet is materially better, for system scripting-type of issues. What am I missing?

I'm not saying Python is some pinnacle of language design. I'm learning Rust, because it's very obvious how it fills gaps that Python cannot cover. What's that gap for Janet?


It has package management that works.
