THE EDGE PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

This article outlines "Edge," a new programming language for the Ethereum Virtual Machine. The author describes various shortcomings in the current dominant language, Solidity, and explains how Edge could offer more developer control, clearer abstractions, and promote emergent structures over imposed ones. Edge aims to redefine the abstraction stack by combining the flexibility of low-level languages like Huff and ETK with high-level type systems, opening up new possibilities in smart contract development.
