Introduction to Cone Language

Cone is a fast, fit, friendly, and safe systems programming language. It combines the performance and safety of Rust and C with the ergonomics and expressiveness of languages like Python and Ruby.

Cone offers automatic memory management and supports both garbage-collected and manual memory management. It allows programmers to choose the most suitable approach for their application's needs.

The language is designed to optimize for both speed and safety, with a focus on concurrent programming. It features fine-grained lifetimes and permissions model to prevent data races.

Cone's concurrency model takes inspiration from Go with its green threads (called 'fibers'), and from Erlang with lightweight, isolated processes. This hybrid approach aims to provide a robust concurrency toolkit.

Cone is still under development, with active contributions from a small, dedicated community. Its evolving ecosystem and tooling are expected to mature, reflecting the language's adaptability and modern features.

Cone's ergonomic design was inspired by a board game called Go, which emphasizes simplicity and depth, mirroring Cone's design goals.
