Caracal

An imperative, compiled language with focus on clear syntax and sensible defaults.

Designed for clear, enjoyable syntax with practical defaults. Caracal aims to feel lightweight to write while remaining statically typed through strong type inference. The project is currently in active development, with the core syntax and semantics being fleshed out and implemented.

Source

Example hello-world.cara

def main() i32
{
    C.puts("Hello, world!");
    return 0;
}

Goals

Native compilation
Sensible defaults
Powerful generics
A low barrier for tests
Maybe not too ugly syntax
