Const generics, a runtime or compile time construct?

https://docs.modular.com/mojo/changelog.html#v0.4.0-2023-10-05

Really happy to see this development in Mojo, where

StringLiteral

StringLiteral

is a const generic of type 'string', which is something not even C++ or Rust manages to do.

However, I am curious if the 'instantiation' or 'specialization' of the template parameter is actually resolved during runtime or compile time.

I am asking because I am waiting to be able to check the length of an input

ListLiteral

ListLiteral

at compile time and do comparison with it.
