[logo] :rocket: Say hello to moonbit-ic-cdk — The first MoonBit-powered Canister Development Kit for building on the Internet Computer (ICP) :crescent_moon: Why MoonBit + ICP? WebAssembly (WASM) is at the core of canister smart contracts on ICP. But here’s the catch: Most non-Rust CDKs on ICP…

I haven’t heard of moonbit before Where is this language used right now and how would it compare to Motoko

Hi @Gekctek Moonbit is a very new language designed to embrace WebAssembly (Wasm). Its core development team is based in Hong Kong, and they’ve previously held several meetups in places like Singapore. They also showcased the language at last year’s Rust China conference.Previously, the Moonbit cor…

Hi @sea-snake , I’m glad you’re interested in this topic! At this stage, it seems that MoonBit can adopt a similar approach to the Rust CDK. While developing the V1 version, I experimented with serialization/deserialization (de/se) of some basic types and found that handling the raw bytes correctly…

Update: Look what I’ve discovered—Juno! This is an awesome project. It features a beautiful, minimalist UI and comprehensive documentation and API. I actually first heard about it through its SNS, and I regret not having started exploring it sooner. I’m thinking that integrating Juno will be a ma…

So great to hear! Likewise, that’s super exciting :rocket:
