#Features

• A performant systems programming language that feels like a scripting language.
• Aims to combine the expressiveness of Scheme with the convenience of Python, Lua or Javascript and the performance of C.
• Compile-time resource management using view propagation, an annotation-free variation of borrow checking.
• A single codebase targets native 64-bit Linux and Windows (via MinGW) as well as SPIR-V and GLSL shaders. Your math functions run on CPU and GPU without modification.
• Fully interoperable with C libraries. Import and use C include files directly.
• Support for live code execution as well as offline compilation of object files.
• Statically typed but fully inferred type system via forward propagation. Supports closures as zero-cost abstraction.
• Open Source MIT licensed.
• Built with LLVM and clang for multi-stage programming features and overhead-free interoperability with C libraries.
