😍 TON becoms more accessible to developers –
the language for TVM Blockchains Tolk
🧲 At the recent
TON Gateway, the blockchain team announced a new programming language, TON Tolk, which is more learning-friendly than FunC and designed for creating core network programs
👨💻 FunC is awesome. It is really low-level and encourages a programmer to think about compiler internals. It gives full control over TVM assembler, allowing a programmer to make his contract as effective as possible
😎 But there is a problem. FunC is "functional C", and it's for ninja. If you are keen on Lisp and Haskell, you'll be happy. But if you are a JavaScript / Go / Kotlin developer, its syntax is peculiar for you, leading to occasional mistakes. A struggle with syntax may decrease your motivation for digging into TON
🏆 Imagine, what if there was a language, also smart, also low-level, but not functional and not like C?
