Programming mandarin just dropped

Seems like an interesting language. How well does it perform?

syntax looks like a mix of rust and go

Been a while since I used anything huawei

Grok, how well is mandarin for programming?

>>105785392 (OP)
I don't hate it. If I had to use a GC lang, I'd pick this over Go and Java any day.

>>105785519
Will you shut the fuck up? I'd install and benchmark this crap myself if I knew how to do it accurately.

>>105785522
Why?

>>105785519
Cangjie is a programming language developed by Huawei, designed primarily for its HarmonyOS Next operating system. Named after the Cangjie input method for typing Chinese characters, it aims to support general programming for applications across Huawei's ecosystem. Introduced in 2024, Cangjie is set to be open-sourced on July 30, 2025, making it accessible to developers worldwide. It is often compared to languages like Java and Swift due to its focus on application development for Huawei's cross-device platform.

Native Intelligence: Cangjie is designed with built-in support for AI-driven features, enabling developers to integrate intelligent functionalities into applications seamlessly.Full-Scene Capabilities: It supports development across various scenarios, including mobile, IoT, and cross-device coordination, aligning with HarmonyOS Next’s distributed architecture.High Performance: Huawei claims Cangjie offers enhanced performance through a new garbage collection system, which ensures smoother application flows and faster response times.Strong Security: The language incorporates safety mechanisms, such as safer array access, which reportedly reduces crash rates during cross-device coordination by 68%.Modular Architecture: Cangjie is built for scalability and adaptability, making it suitable for diverse use cases.Development Toolkit: It includes tools for debugging, static verification, performance analysis, and testing, enhancing developer productivity.

>>105785538
Performance Claims:Huawei’s earlier Ark Compiler, which underpins some of Cangjie’s technology, claimed performance improvements of 24% in system fluency and 44% in response speed. However, developers found these claims optimistic, suggesting real-world performance may vary.

it's rike lust

>>105785530
It doesn't have the weird special syntax Go has (: for initalization [] for generics) and it has all the features Go thinks it's too good for.
ML inspired syntax makes it look more like Scala than Java's 90s OOP with functional bolted on.
It seems to be a fairly well designed language. Still depends on how performant their GC is.

hate uniucode tread?

>>105785659
no

>>105785533
>Absolutely zero mentions of performance
Jeets will flock to it.

>>105785486
Source or GTFO

What the fuck, are you a bot?

Cangjie's performance, according to their white paper. It's slightly reassuring, but not including C++ or Rust in the comparison already makes it look like a poor choice for systems programming.

>>105787110
It's for apps on their Harmony OS.

>>105787110
java and swift were mistakes

>>105785486

I will now use your lang.

>>105785486
Holy based. I kneel.

>>105787110
It wouldn't make much sense to compare programming languages with a garbage collector running on a virtual machine to manual memory management programming languages running on bare metal.
That Swift was included and performs the worst either says a lot about Swift or the people writing that paper and test.

>>105785392 (OP)
Threadly reminder that America spies on the world's citizens

>rival Java and Swift
No thanks.
>>105785486
This sounds pretty based though.

>>105787934
You're right, that was very short-sighted of me. I guess C# would be a better language to compare against.

Gay shit like this is always advertised in the tech field and it's never finished or actually useful. It's also the case that their written language is inferior for programming.

These threads are spam and I don't know anyone who would pay for these posts besides the Zion don. Not even chinks in chink land would pay for this. This is very similar to how the Zion don. Was paying for negative publicity against himself the entire time Brandon was in office. Then (predicably) at the end of it all they simply tried slapping an inverter on the propaganda and "whoooa super bess president evar coming froo". Fucking childish

many such cases

>>105787934
Swift was probably included because it's used for developing apps on apple, similar to this.

>>105789652
That makes sense but doesn't explain why Swift performs worse than Go in their test. Something is off.

it's not in chinese, still uses english/latin

>>105790620
That's not what OP said

>>105790243
Swift does perform worse than go though.

Thanks for the link. I was giving it too much credit. I didn't realize how much of a shitlang Swift was.
