Vercel Labs Ships Zero: A Graph-First Language Built So Agents Write the Code
Vercel Labs has introduced Zero, an experimental systems programming language aimed at AI rather than human users. It employs unique features like a specific toolchain contract and structured error messages. Reaching version 0.3.4, it compiles to native binaries for major operating systems. The language prioritizes size, speed, and agent usability, though it is still in development. By Daniel Curtis
