Inspiration Languages

The syntax & features draw inspiration from the following languages:

  • Python: For its simplicity & readability.
  • TypeScript/JavaScript: For its flexible yet structured approach to programming, as well as its C-like syntaxm, which I much prefer to Python/Ruby and the like.
  • Rust: For its focus on modern syntax, like ranges.
