Hazure

Programming language that compiles to Typescript!

fun main: void = do
    @write("Hello, World!");
end;

or with the pipeline operator:

fun main: void = do
    "Hello, World!\n"
    |> @write(_);
end;

Note: Everything in this project can be changed at anytime! (I'm still finding out what work best for lots of thing) if you have an idea, feel free to create an issues about it, or even create a PR! (I'd be very happy)

2. Build executable cargo build
3. Try running some examples! path/to/executable compile path/to/file.hz

Syntax

This language is still in development, the syntax can be changed at anytime.

Hazure is a free-form syntax style, so the indentation is purely for readability.

fun main: void = do
    @write("Hello, World!");
end;

is the same as

fun main: void = do @write("Hello, World!"); end;

Hazure is also expression-oriented like OCaml. There are currently 10 expressions:

1. Comment

   -- Comment!
   -{ Block Comment }-
   

2. Values / Types

   1
   true
   "string"
   variable
   

3. Unary and Binary

   1 + 2
   !true
   

4. Call and Intrinsic. Intrinsic starts with a @

   @write("Hello")
   foo("bar")
   

5. Pipeline

   "Hello, World" |> @write(_)
   

6. Variable declaration

   let foo: int = 727;
   let bar: string = "Hi";
   let baz: boolean = true;
   

7. Function declaration

   fun foo: void = @write("void returns nothing");
   fun bar (x: int): int = x + 1;
   fun baz (x: int) (y: int): int = x + y;
   

8. If conditions

   let cond: bool = true;
   if cond then
       @write("True");
   else
       do
           @write("False");
       end;
   end;
   

9. Case matching

   case 1 + 1 of
       | 2 -> @write("Yes");
       \ @write("How?");
   end;
   

10. Do notation. It allows you to have multiple expression because something like right hand side of the function declaration fun a: int = ... can only have 1 expression. Do allows you to bypass that.

    do
        @write("Hello, World");
        foo(bar);
        let baz: int = 6 + 10;
    end;
    

Hazure isn't a scripting language, so, you will need a main function.

fun main: void = do
    @write("Hello, World");
    @write(34 + 35);
end;
