Cecile 0.0.9

⭐ Introduction

The Cecile, a modern programming language designed for simplicity and flexibility.

🍎 Overview

Welcome to the Cecile programming language.

The syntax of Cecile is influenced by traditional programming languages like JavaScript, Go, and Rust, with a strong emphasis on developer experience, readability and ease-of-use.

Cecile is written in Rust. Some of performance matter part is written in Unsafe Rust that makes fast enough to compete with traditional interpreted languages like Javascript, Python.

Important note: This project is built for learning purposes. The code quality of this project is definitely not production ready.

📕 Features

Language features:

• Bytecode compiler
• Garbage collected in runtime
• Type Supported
• Basic types, Array
• Control flow statements
• Object Oriented Programming
• Stack tracing

🔥 Syntax examples

Variable Declaration

// Variable Declaration
let number: int = 1;
let string: String = "string";

// Ofcource you don't need to write type everytime you declare variable
let number = 2;
let string = "hello cecile";

Function Declaration

fn say_hello() -> String {
  return "hello";
}

println say_hello() // Out: "hello"

Type Declaration

type Point {
  x: int,
  y: int,
}

impl Point {
  fn new(x: int, y: int) {
    self.x = x;
    self.y = y;
  }
}

let point: Point = Point();

Array & Builtin function

let arr = [1, 2, 3, 4];
arr.push(5);

println arr; // Out: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

⚙️️ Build Guide

🦀 Install Rust

We recommend installing Rust using rustup. You can install rustup as follows:

• macOS or Linux:

  curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
  

• Windows (64-bit):

  Download the Windows 64-bit executable and follow the on-screen instructions.

🐙 Build from Source Code

We recommend installing Cecile by building from the source code as follows:

# Download the source code
git clone https://github.com/Hollowloki/Cecile
cd Cecile

# Install 'Cecile'
$ cargo install --path .

Now to use Cecile language, in your terminal, run:

cecile
