Jinse Finance reported that the Solidity team, the developers behind the Ethereum smart contract language, recently announced that Solidity will be split into two independent directions: Classic Solidity and Core Solidity. Currently, the programming language in use is Classic Solidity, which has been deployed in production and whose compiler is highly reliable. However, the Solidity team still considers the language itself to be unstable, as indicated by its 0.x versioning, with the latest version being 0.80.30. Classic Solidity is still scheduled for regular major updates. Core Solidity, on the other hand, is a major innovation for Solidity, with its type system built from the ground up to support features such as generics, first-class functions, and algebraic data types. Core Solidity is currently still in the prototype stage. Solidity 1.0 will mark the point at which Core Solidity reaches a sufficient level of stability to become the default frontend. The Solidity team stated that one of the goals for Core Solidity is to enable as smooth a transition as possible from the current language, Classic Solidity, to Core Solidity. Part of this plan involves a series of major version releases to gradually align the syntax of Classic Solidity with the anticipated final state of Core Solidity, making the transition more gradual and seamless.
