"to eliminate every line of C and C++ from Microsoft by 2030"
"My team's project is a research project. We are building tech to make migration from language to language possible,"
"not to set a new strategy for Windows 11+ or to imply that Rust is an endpoint."
A Microsoft team is running a research project to develop technology that enables migration away from C and C++ toward safer languages. The work focuses on building tooling and methods to make language-to-language migration possible across codebases. The initiative is framed as a personal and team research goal rather than an official corporate strategy or mandate. The effort intended to attract like-minded engineers and explore migration possibilities. Rust is identified as a candidate language but is not declared the definitive endpoint for migrations or the official replacement for all C/C++ code.
