I've had my eye on this language for a couple months; in particular, V UI subproject, a SwiftUI-like code-first framework for doing GUIs, caught my eye, since I rather like SwiftUI and I still need to make a human-friendly KyuWeb client for the server to be of any use. Unfortunately V UI doesn't seem to have progressed much since I last had a look on it. Here's hoping it gets the attention it deserves, because from what I've researched of GTK, it looks about as fun as a kidney stone to use, and having a modern low-level language with a closely-integrated, cross-platform modern GUI framework could really put V above the rest (SwiftUI does not have first-class support outside of Apple platforms currently).

(I'd also like to see first-class support for the BSDs, but I know better than to hold my breath on that one
