Really interesting. For the skeptics, this is not just a proof of concept. There is a real app made using this language: https://volt-app.com/
and the REPL only leaks 1MB [1] to compile and run a hello world program.

It doesn't anymore.
There are lots of issues that are being fixed. Strange nitpicking on alpha software.
This is great! Thanks for your work. Can V be integrated into existing c++ projects? I work in audio and constantly working in c++ is tiring. I'd love to work in something like V and transpile down.

Thanks! Absolutely. Calling V code is as simple as calling C (V can emit C).
>I'm working on a language with a focus on simplicity and "only one way to do it":
If I wanted a language with "only one way to do it", i'd use Brainfuck. Which, btw, is very easy to learn, well documented, and the same source code runs on many, many platforms.
The development has been going quite well:
