I want a language with staging and a module system though - getting a bit sick of traits and their schenanigans

Dunno if 's thing did that - need to get my head around some of the fancier stuff in that paper 🤔

But yeah, good thought on the QTT stuff - also curious about the stuff the people have been working on in GrTT - which integrates some of their fancy graded modal stuff with dependent type systems… not sure if that is useful at all for first class module systems.
Their graded modal dependent type system stuff is here:
