Mojo is built on the latest MLIR compiler technology, an evolution of LLVM which Rust lowers to. This enables programmers to write code optimized for different CPU architectures, and use the same ergonomic programming model to compile and run native GPU kernels

Open any introductory programming book and you’ll find several pages dedicated to structured programming concepts, i.e. making use of loops, conditions and functions extensively for better clarity and maintainability for your code. It helps you express your ideas and solutions neatly and elegantly in code. However, these benefits come at a cost: performance overhead. 

Mojo SDK v0.7 is the first big release of Mojo🔥 in 2024, and it’s chock full of new language and standard library feature goodness. In this blog post, I’ll share some of the key highlights from this release with examples, and discuss what they are and when to use them. I’m only going to cover the new features, for a complete list of what’s new, what’s changed, what’s removed, and what’s fixed in this release, be sure to check out the changelog in the Mojo documentation.

Did you catch Fabian's presentation at SINTEF? If you missed out, he'll be doing it again in Oslo, Norway on the 15th of February!By popular request, we're publishing the slides here, and will soon have video to go with it. Make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel to get the alert!

Strongly typed languages need some mechanism to express generic functions, other languages don't enforce types which means every function is generic. Many languages implement some form of this feature under a variety of different names:

For ModCon 2023 we'll be hosting a competition, where the best projects from around the community will be presented on stage.

Mojo SDK v0.5 is now available for download and includes exciting new features. In this blog post, I’ll discuss what these features are and how to use them with code examples. ICYMI, in last week’s Modular community livestream, we dove deep into all things Mojo SDK v0.5 with live demos of the examples shared in this blog post, while answering your questions live!

Jeff, Abdul, and Chris presented a talk about Mojo and how it relates to MLIR and LLVM, at the LLVM Developer Conference 2023.

Mojo allows you to access the entire Python ecosystem, but environments can vary depending on how Python was installed. It's worth taking some time to understand exactly how modules and packages work in Python, as there are a few complications to be aware of. If you've had trouble calling into Python code before, this will help you get started.

How do you guarantee that your software is portable, runs reliably, and scales easily in production environments? The short answer is: Use containers. Container technologies like Docker and Kubernetes are popular tools for building and deploying software applications, but until recently they were considered exotic infrastructure for IT/Ops experts.
