Of all languages presented here, Hare standout as one of the most close
linked to C. It is a language that is designed to be a better C, with
some of the features of C++ and Rust. While keeping the simplicity of C
and (intended) to have a very small and simple footprint/design too.
Golang is another language that is designed to be a better C, but it is
a bit bigger and more complex than Hare and has a wider ecosystem.
