# The Core Language
A statically typed systems programming language that **you shouldn't use**, I'm NOT joking.
A statically typed systems programming language that **you shouldn't use**.
I mark it as complete, it's pretty buggy but I had a lot of fun making it.
Learned a lot about language design and implementation, very worthwhile experience.
If you are intersted in programming languages, checkout bottom of the readme (there are useful resources there!).
The language is usable,
it lacks a macro system/generics for full convenience. It can be combined with C preprocessor
or python but where is fun in that?
Generics seem easy but I wanted something more powerful with compile time tree rewriting capabilities
but thats complicated, I dont have good design for that. :(
The basic premise of the language is simplicity and debuggability,
reinforcing already useful ideas from C,C++,Go,Odin,Jai and shaving off round edges. In the future it might become a single/two file, easily embeddable library language with optional fixed-size allocation scheme and stb libraries style design.

* **Debuggers**(Visual Studio, Remedybg) **fully work** with the language, you can step through the program
* **No external dependencies**, you just setup clang and call build.bat
* **No heap allocation** during lifetime of the compiler
* Compiles to C code, in the future it will also compile to bytecode and hopefully a raw x64 executable
* Very strict Go like type system with untyped literals
* **Order independent declarations**
* Module system, user namespaces the library, only the used library code gets compiled
* Module system
* Tree shaking (unused code is not compiled)
* **Windows and Linux**(only tested on Ubuntu) support
* Conditional compilation
* Runtime type reflection
