Janet's compile calls janet_compile_lint:

/* C Function for compiling */
JANET_CORE_FN(cfun_compile,
              "(compile ast &opt env source lints)",

Janet bytecode operates on an array of identical registers that can hold any Janet value (Janet * in C).

Most instructions have a destination register, and 1 or 2 source registers.

Registers are simply indices into the stack frame, which can be thought of as a constant-sized array.

Regarding just uuid functionality...

Here are a few things I came across:

• joy-framework's uuid
• brandonchartier's janet-uuid

Likely there are more [1].

Being able to specify a seed for randomness might be good?

• Go at Google: Language Design in the Service of Software Engineering
  • assertions without support
    • Go was designed to address the problems faced in software development at Google, which led to a language that is not a breakthrough research language but is nonetheless an excellent tool for engineering large software projects.
    • Or to rephrase, it is about language design in the service of software engineering.
    • Our answer to that is that the properties Go does have address the issues that make large-scale software development difficult.
    • A larger view of software engineering is required
    • The primary considerations for any language to succeed in this context are:
    • When launching a new language it is important that the target audience be able to learn it quickly
