Show HN: Yggdrasil 1.0 – Native executables for Shen

#1

Post by MTarver »

Yggdrasil allows for the generation of type secure stand-alone native language programs from Shen source programs. We are pleased to announce the release of Yggdrasil 1.0 which has a plug-in configured for Common Lisp. Yggdrasil requires Shen 34.6 which is now available from https://shenlanguage.org/download.html. Questions to https://groups.google.com/g/qilang.

More details on Yggdrasil can be found at https://shenlanguage.org/yggdrasil.html.

You might want to reconsider your name: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yggdrasil_Linux/GNU/X >

Also https://yggdrasil-network.github.io — but tbf both the linux distro, as well as the overlay network are niches. Pretty sure there are much more well known projects with the same name.

What surprised me was that Yggdrasil Linux is apparently still alive, though there's been little Github activity and none since April 2022:

https://github.com/Yggdrasil-LGX/Yggdrasil-LGX/graphs/code-f...>

Still, the name is fairly likely to cause confusion.
