Carbon Language Description

Carbon Language is an innovative experimental successor to C++ that aims to deliver performance on par with C++ through the use of LLVM, while also providing low-level access to bits and addresses. It allows seamless integration with existing C++ code, supporting features such as inheritance and templates, and facilitates rapid and scalable builds that align with current C++ build systems. The language is grounded in solid foundational principles, making it particularly accessible for those familiar with C++. Additionally, it offers straightforward, tool-based upgrades between different versions of Carbon. With a focus on enhancing safety, it provides an incremental pathway towards a memory-safe subset, addressing some of the common concerns associated with traditional C++. Ultimately, Carbon is conceived not merely as an evolution of C++, but as a successor language that prioritizes interoperability and aims for widespread adoption by enabling a smooth transition for existing C++ developers and codebases.
