    Abstract: A community of developers has formed to modernize the
    Fortran ecosystem. In this article, we describe the high-level
    features of Fortran that continue to make it a good choice for
    scientists and engineers in the 21st century. Ongoing efforts
    include the development of a Fortran standard library and package
    manager, the fostering of a friendly and welcoming online
    community, improved compiler support, and language feature
    development. The lessons learned are common across contemporary
    programming languages and help reduce the learning curve and
    increase adoption of Fortran.
