Shed Skin - A (restricted) Python-to-C++ Compiler

Version 0.9.14 of Shed Skin, a restricted-Python-to-C++ transpiler, has been released with a rewritten and faster type inference engine, full Unicode support, near feature parity with Python 3.15 support modules, and support for heterogeneous 3-length tuples. A 1.0 release is planned within a few months, likely around year end, with remaining work described as mostly mechanical. The post also highlights TurboPython, a similar but distinct project that compiles Python-like syntax through C++ to native binaries using a Rust-like ownership model for memory safety without a garbage collector, reference counting, or GIL.
