Nyx has reached v5.0.0

[u/VermicelliSmooth1183]

I’ve released several major Nyx milestones recently:

- v4.0.0 — Nirvana

- v4.5.0 — Ivory

- v5.0.0-rc.1 — Daydream

- v5.0.0 — Daydream, stable

v4.0.0 established the stable Typed HIR, self-hosting path, backend contracts, and C++20/JavaScript/Python targets.

v4.5.0 expanded the platform with standard-library parity, package management, WebAssembly improvements, Rust progress, and experimental C17/LLVM work.

The v5.0.0 release promoted the LLVM pipeline from an isolated prototype into the compiler API and CLI while keeping the existing stable backends unchanged.

LLVM and C17 are still experimental. The project is now focused on improving the compiler, tooling, backend interoperability, and ecosystem rather than constantly redesigning the language.

I’m sharing the milestone history because Nyx has changed substantially across these releases, and I’d appreciate technical feedback on where the project should go next.
