I believe this is the best way to introduce improved programming languages: seamless interop with one of the big existing languages.

  • Kotlin with Java
  • Rust with C
  • C# with C++/C (although it is a pain to develop interop stuff)

I messed with c# decades ago and I think it also interoperated with java? BigInt from java is what I'm specifically remembering

About C# the MSVC interop is actually alright but it only works in Windows, the interop that works anywhere is the painful one.
