It is not entirely correct. There is a C (j40.c) and two C++ implementations (libjxl and libjxl-tiny). Kornel would love to see a Rust implementation I believe.

Thanks for clarification! Are those truly independent implementations? (i.e. not derived from each other? I'm not deep into the subject.)

I'm the author of J40 and it was intentionally developed from scratch exactly in order to remedy the situation where libjxl serves as a de facto specification as opposed to the actual specification.
