In my niche corner of scientific computing it feels like Cython has largely been replaced by Numba and CFFI, or just Julia. Last I checked it still needed setup.py which is a bit of a deal breaker in 2025.
Very interesting. I'm currently trading off whether to use Mojo or C++/pybind to accelerate simulations that combine matrix operations with fine-grained scalar calculations. I only recently learned that pybind + cppimport offers the integrated compile-on-import experience available in Mojo.

Only if you want to lose access to Windows users, as it is a low priority for Mojo development.
We spent decades getting out of the clutches of Mathworks, Microsoft, etc. Why are people eager to go back that way?
