Mojo programming language open-sourced under Apache 2.0 license

The Mojo programming language, initially aiming to be a superset of Python, has officially released its compiler and toolchain under the Apache 2.0 license. While the original plan to be fully Python-compatible has shifted, Mojo now stands as its own language, designed for efficient GPU programming with Python-inspired syntax.
