Neander Language Replaces Exceptions with Failable Types

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

Neander programming language eliminates exceptions, using a failable type T! for API calls that returns either a value or an error.

Meridian48 take
A pragmatic design choice that trades syntactic sugar for explicit error handling, but may increase boilerplate in complex flows.
