This is my follow-up "Show HN" from roughly a year ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27876570). Since then the language design has evolved and the compiler has gotten much more solid.
Assorted extra info:
- The C3 name is a homage to the C2 language project (http://c2lang.org) which it was originally inspired by.
- Although C3 mostly conforms to C syntax, the most obvious change is requiring `fn` in front of the functions. This is to simplify searching for definitions in editors.
- There is a comparison with some other languages here: http://www.c3-lang.org/compare/
- The parts in C3 which breaks C semantics or syntax: http://www.c3-lang.org/changesfromc/
- Aside from the very C-like syntax, one the biggest difference between C3 and other "C competitors" is that C3 prioritizes C ABI compatibility, so that all C3 special types (such as slices and optionals) can be used from C without any effort. C and C3 can coexist nicely in a code base.
- Currently the standard library is not even alpha quality, it's actively being built, but there is a `libc` module which allows accessing all of libc. Raylib is available to use from C3 with MacOS and Windows, see: https://github.com/c3lang/vendor
- There is a blog with assorted articles I've written during the development: https://c3.handmade.network/blog
