- Worth noticing
- The page reports that differential tests comparing JVM and Rust execution produced 78 matching results.
Field notes
The page describes translating every class in a mod jar, including bundled libraries such as Registrate, Flywheel, and Ponder. It reports that each method becomes a Rust function and that a native compatibility layer supplies calls to Minecraft, NeoForge, and Java libraries. Performance figures are attributed to the translator’s harness and game builds on an M4 Pro Mac; the roadmap still lists machines and saving/screens as planned.
