Both of these early approaches are only able to differentiate code written in a suitable manner for the framework, limiting their interoperability with other programs.

A more recent package in the [[Julia (programming language)|Julia]] programming language — [https://github.com/FluxML/Zygote.jl Zygote] — resolves the issues that earlier attempts faced by treating the language's syntax as the graph; the design of the Julia language letsmakes it easy for the [[intermediate representation]] forof arbitrary Julia code be differentiated directly, [[compiler optimization|optimized]], and compiled.<ref name="flux" /><ref>{{cite arxiv|last=Innes|first=Michael|date=2018-10-18|title=Don't Unroll Adjoint: Differentiating SSA-Form Programs|eprint=1810.07951|class=cs.PL}}</ref> An in-development differentiable programming language called [[Myia (programming language)|Myia]] also uses a similar approach.<ref name="myia1" />
