I've been toying with a better C... https://github.com/panaflexx/classyc

Started with the excellent MIR compiler, and I wrote much of the class/string/json/dict, exceptions and AI made the generics,ownership tracking, and safety checks/traps. Added some go

The memory model is mixed, I ended up using arenas for dictionaries and adding a full ownership checking / safety checking compiler stage.

It's purely for the joy of making something interesting.
