Huawei to open-source self-developed programming language Cangjie

Huawei Technologies is set to open-source its self-developed programming language, Cangjie, marking the latest step in the company's pursuit of technological self-sufficiency. First unveiled a year ago, Cangjie will be open-sourced and accessible to all developers starting July 30, Huawei announced during its annual developer conference in June. Open-sourcing allows public access to a software program's source code, enabling third-party developers to modify or share its design, fix issues, or expand its capabilities. This initiative reflects Huawei's ongoing efforts to reduce reliance on foreign software and other technologies amid tighter export restrictions from Washington. Cangjie, named after a legendary figure in Chinese mythology credited with inventing written Chinese characters, is designed for 'full-scenario intelligence', according to Huawei. It features native artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities and robust security, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, according to its official website. Huawei's smartphones are displayed at its flagship store in Beijing.
