SSA is a handy transform.
The last time I heard about the V language, it overpromised and underdelivered a lot. Have it changed in the meantime? Overall the impression I got back then was that it was made by people who don't really know much about programming languages and compilers.
My perception is that the designers have taken their rough experience onboard and have now settled on a reasonable development model with an emphasis on achievable feature additions. The language server is astonishingly good, the feature set as it stands very much batteries included and the reaction time to highlighted discrepancies and a reasonable resolution very commendable. I’m an embedded dev so my opinions are biased accordingly but I do see some pretty awesome additions with vls, veb, vui etc. Of course, please conduct your own experiments and research but I’m incrementally optimistic.
Some explanation would help a lot.
