It's actually written in V, GitHub doesn't support the language yet. The compilation is temporarily slower for this release: - - Debug builds are used (use `v -prod -o v` to get faster compilation). - The new formatter runs on every single token and slows the compiler down by ~20%. This will be taken care of. - There are a lot of known issues that are quick to fix (like function lookups being O(n)). +There's some old hacky code written when V was 2 months old. All of it will be quickly cleaned up. There are ~500 lines of C code, which will be removed by the end of June. + ## Code structure https://github.com/vlang/v/blob/master/CodeStructure.md
