Show HN: Cryo – A language whose programs live forever

Category: devtools

Tags: programming-language, persistence, checkpointing, process-migration

Score: 5.3/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 5, Documentation: 2, Utility: 4)

Cryo is a programming language that allows running programs to be frozen to disk and thawed later in another process, resuming execution exactly where they left off. The project is interesting for its approach to process persistence and checkpointing, but the provided documentation is extremely minimal, consisting only of a brief description and a playground link.

Target audience: language designers, systems programmers, researchers
