“Motoko statically compiles to WebAssembly, a portable binary format that abstracts cleanly over modern computer hardware, and thus permits its execution broadly on the Internet, and the Internet Computer.” Andreas Rossberg is on the team behind this, he’s one of the designers of WebAssembly.
Compiling to webassembly is definitely a good thing in my opinion. We need to get the Internet off javascript and start using real programming languages to build next generation applications on the Internet.
very smooth experience! go and download at sdk.dfinity.org
Fantastic stuff! One step closer to the visionary internet computer <3
"We are also working on adding Rust support to the SDK". Rust developers would appreciate this! Onwards and upwards
Looks very interesting, especially the fact that you don’t need databases. Is there any more info om the memory model?
Finally! Can´t wait to try the testnet, hopefully soon :D
Really enjoyed the demo last week! The SDK alpha seems nice and simple
The important step to launch Internet Computer.
I'm happy about this like about a child’s first step.
