I added this language to my watch list some time ago and forgot about it, until I got a notification about a new release (0.15) yesterday.

I'm someone who is familiar with system languages (C, Rust) and shell languages (Bash, Zsh, ..). But don't have much experience, at a proficient level, with any languages setting in between.

So I gave Koto's language guide a read, and found it to be very well-written, and the premise of the language in general to be interesting. I only got annoyed near the end when I got to @base, because I'm an anti-OOP diehard 😉

I hope this one well start to enjoy some adoption.

Oh, very nice. I was searching for an easy to use scripting language for a project I am making. Is it easy for beginners? I am currently using mlua, but it is a bit hacky. I liked Rhai, but it has no real LSP at the moment and no asynchronous code support. And also, does it have sandboxing?
