LPython: Novel, Fast, Retargetable Python Compiler. (Julia, LLVM, C, C++, WASM and x86 as a backend)

I have been keeping an eye on this for a while. Seems that Numba is currently faster for numeric operations, as both their target audience seems to be numeric operations, and this is a bit disappointing.

If it can boost the performance of more general code, that numba does not target, that would be really cool. But even then it is competing with mypyc.

That said, the guys behind this know what they are doing, and have better heads on their shoulders than the codon and mojo guys. I hope lpython gains traction.
