This is written in Rust, and the reloading mechanism looks like it aims to hot reload Rust libraries. So this could be used as a development workbench to glue together Rust libraries, think Python gluing a bunch of C++ libs together. Language wise, it looks like it is in the Swift/Julia/Haxe space but with first class support for Rust. This looks interesting, I wish them luck and would love to use this in the future. Two other languages to check out are Dyon, https://github.com/PistonDevelopers/dyon Gluon, https://github.com/gluon-lang/gluon
