 Hy 1.0.0 released

Version 1.0.0 of <a href="http://hylang.org/" rel="nofollow">Hy</a>, a Lisp dialect that is embedded in Python, has been https://github.com/hylang/hy/discussions/2608

after nearly 12 years in development. This is the first stable release of the project:


Henceforth, breaking changes to documented parts of the language
(other than dropping support for versions of Python that are
themselves no longer supported by the CPython developers) will
increase the major version number, and my intention is for that not to
happen often, if at all.


The 1.0.0 release supports Python 3.8 through 3.13. See the <a href="http://hylang.org/hy/doc/v1.0.0" rel="nofollow">documentation</a> and the "<a href="http://hylang.org/hy/doc/v1.0.0/whyhy" rel="nofollow">Why Hy?</a>" page for why
one might want to use it.
