Design Goals

The design of this language should be guided by the following objectives:

  • Easy to implement auto-complete
    • Easy to parse
    • Easy to typecheck
  • Easy to create DSL
  • Easy to format
    • simple grammar
  • Easy to implement LSP features (go-to-definition etc.)
  • Fast to compile
  • Debuggable (stacktrace!)
  • Huge standard library (to minimize code standard fragmentation)
  • Built-in tools (testing, formatting, lint, etc)
