     @luatic @lizzy With C++23 (if the std module exists; I think std module only made it into C++26 though), it is would be just `import std; int main() { std::print("Hello world!\n"); }`

     @lizzy ☝️🤓 actually with Java 23+ you can now have "void main() { println("Hello world!"); }" which should be shorter than the C++ one (even if you skip the iostream verbosity and use C puts) since you don't need to include anything

     @luatic @lizzy "even if you skip the iostream verbosity and use C puts" What are you using? C++98 or something? std::print exists in C++23 so :).

     @pinskia @lizzy C++ 17 😔

     ((but std::print is still longer than puts and you still need to include something for it, so..))

     @luatic @lizzy `import std;` in C++26 :) and the plan IIRC is to include the std module for GCC 15.
