Borgo – a Rusty language that compiles to Go

People have been talking about a Simpler Rust for years now. Remove the borrow checker and lifetimes, bolt on a Garbage collector and you should get a fairly solid language for application development. Borgo is my attempt at creating such a language! In this talk, we'll go through the ideas behind it and my experience in building it (Borgo itself is written in Rust). If you ever felt like Rust was too hard at times and wished for a simpler alternative, come and check out Borgo!

Abstract

People have been talking about a Simpler Rust for years now. Remove the borrow checker and lifetimes, bolt on a Garbage collector and you should get a fairly solid language for application development. Borgo is my attempt at creating such a language! In this talk, we'll go through the ideas behind it and my experience in building it (Borgo itself is written in Rust). If you ever felt like Rust was too hard at times and wished for a simpler alternative, come and check out Borgo!
