Project Verona is an experimental research programming language developed by Microsoft.[3][2]
The project is being supported by C# project manager Mads Torgensen[4] and Microsoft Research Cambridge research software engineer Juliana Franco.[5] Project Verona is also being aided by academics at Imperial College London.[2] Unlike in Rust where the ownership model is based on a single object, it is based on groups of objects in Verona.[5]
According to Microsoft, the goal of the project is to create a safer platform for memory management.[3]
Project Verona is open source released under MIT License and is under active development on GitHub.[6]
