I'd prefer to use the more descriptive title, the reasons are revolving around the benefits specifically for smart-contract development.

| ### 2) Composability | ||
|
|
||
| Cadence enables composability. Resources (which are arbitrary user-defined data types) are stored directly in users’ accounts, and can flow freely between contracts: They can be passed as arguments to functions, returned from functions, or even combined in arbitrary data structures. This makes implementing business logic easier, more natural and promotes reuse of existing logic. |

| Cadence’s syntax is inspired by popular modern general-purpose programming languages like **[Swift](https://developer.apple.com/swift/)**, **[Kotlin](https://kotlinlang.org/)**, and **[Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/),** so developers will find the syntax and the semantics familiar. |
