Which language you wish would really grow and reach mainstream adoption? (self.programming)

Assume mainstream adoption as used by around 7% of all github projects

Personally, I'd like to see Nim get that growth.

I’m obsessed with an extremely little known language called Grain. It’s not quite ready for production but it has an insanely intuitive functional syntax that I want to use noww.

Interesting!
I see OCaml with rust syntax, for the web, which checks out the project goal of bringing functional patterns to everyday programmers.

One of the most exciting things about Grain is that it compiles to WebAssembly.

That's a cool feature.

What is the particularity that you talked about?
In my point of view it looks like JS/TS with arrow functions. 😁

JS/TS already has arrow functions.
