The GitHub issue about the playground says C++ translation is "not coming soon".

So the claimed C/C++ translation looks misleading.

C++ translation will be done by the time the language is open sourced. I can already compile simpler projects.

Any non-trivial C++ program typically uses the STL or a similar library, which requires the full expressiveness of C++ to be implemented.

So, no, I don't think you have done even a tiny fraction of what C++ entails.

I support STL and even plan to support Boost.

That does not make sense. Either you support both because you can translate most C++, or you don't support any (modulo bugs).

Maybe you are hardcoding detection of a set of known types by hand?

Why delay the open source release of V for a complicated feature (C++ translation) that is not part of the core language?
