  • SHA256 + KECCAK builtin
  • Package Manager
  • Storing arrays/long strings/native strings
  • Create separate error message json and “in contract” error message json for easier debugging
  • Indexed events for specific contract types
  • Switch statement
  • Elliptic Curve Library
  • Typed arrays
  • Methods for structs
  • Defined and open process for adding hints
  • Enums
  • Deduce type on assignment from function return

Here’s my wishlist I wrote down a while ago.

My wish list:

  • make function call usable in expressions
  • less verbose/cheaper struct storage updates: to read single attribute full struct needs to be read into memory, to update single attribute full struct needs to be rewritten
  • overloading functions and events (important for api level solidity compatibility)

A Sha256 builtin is at the top of my wishlist as well.
