1. Flix ... takes inspiration from F#, Go, OCaml, Haskell, Rust, and Scala.

2. Flix compiles to JVM bytecode and runs on the Java Virtual Machine.

3. Flix performance is typically within 1-3x of equivalent Scala code.

So... it's mainly just a faster Scala -- but without the ability to integrate with Java, Scala, or Kotlin?

I found it for its Datalog implementation.
