Has anyone used V? https://vlang.io/

On a point of principle I'm never touching it

I'm kinda amazed that even though it looks extremely low level and is relatively new (2019), it already has a set of libraries that are essential for its ecosystem and "killer" apps; i.e. apparently it demonstrates very well what it can do

The best thing it can do is sell you on features it doesn't have

Well, sure, the "REPL" feature is definitely a joke but besides that (which most languages today do) how can you tell V is smoke and mirrors?

Because I've been paying attention to that bold, audacious vaporware for years

Ah, there's history! Saw it trending today on GitHub and thought it was kinda cool. Meh, too bad... Thanks for the info!
