i’m in the hebrides and they get all their sand shipped in from the bahamas so they can lure tourists in with enticing beaches but the water is ice cold they then bottle their souls and sell them in shops for tourists who ask silly questions like “is sand real or shipped in?”

you can do some configuration in Cargo.toml to help reduce the size of the output binary. I use these settings and it trims the size down a good bit
[profile.release]
strip = true
opt-level = "z"
lto = "fat" 
codegen-units = 1
panic = "abort"

it wasn't invented by Chemify. The version they initially used was a concept I invented on a piece of scrap paper before I went on vacation way back in 2018 from bastardised XML. The first ever line of this "chemical programming language" was something like: <Step args=...> [stuff] </Step>
Synthesis
χDL

ASSEMBLER converts the optimized reaction information into a fully defined, hardware-agnostic chemical code using χDL, the world’s first universal chemical programming language, invented by Chemify.

This universal description enables synthesis procedures to be standardized and perfectly replicated. This digital workflow is then seamlessly executed by our pioneering automation systems.

Reusable ‘railroads’ into chemical space: every validated reaction and multi-step route is encoded in χDL with guardrails and error checks.

From reaction optimization and synthesis to workup, purification, and analytical assessment, our advanced robotics technologies maximize access to complex molecules with unprecedented ease.
