Blender dedicated OSArch branch ?

@nikitron If I'm wrong, please educate me, but I think Python is good for "prototyping" not final production, this is why all Blender nodes at the end parse to C or C++

I think one of the current obstacles here is that we have few friends who know C and C++, and even other things like JS/TS or even SQL/SQLite, ...

There are two ways:

1.Rewrite Sverchok on C#+- with much more freedom and more work.

2.Wait for Everithing Nodes and embed all we have done there as module, utilize basic nodes of EN. With less efforts.

1 is more realistic, but who knows

I don't know why I dislike C#, I think C# is good just for windows and those who like .Net

C++ is better I think, especially when "even web-based solutions" are based on C++ and then JS/TS

Animation Nodes use the "middle path" approach, with cPython and ship compiled versions for every platform.

Exactly, I think this can be used for Sverchok too

I recommend this talk : Anthony Shaw - Why is Python slow?. Very interesting to see because python is not slow for everything and it also talks about ways to improve performances in python (current and future).

I think there are some big reasons why some like Blender or SQLite, etc still insist on C
