Hi, I’d like to announce the launch of the technical preview of the /Yolc project/. It is the first milestone where Yolc can produce a partial ERC20 code deployable to Ethereum networks, demonstrating the key idea of linear-type safety. Yolc doesn’t rebuild wheels. Yolc integrates with /foundry/, generates /Solidity/Yul code/, and Yolc is not a language on its own since programming in Yul ...
