In plain words

np is a lexer, parser, interpreter and web runtime designed for developers. Built as a five-weekend project and launched in 2013, it provides a complete language implementation with tools for processing and executing code. The system includes web runtime capabilities, making it suitable for developers who need an integrated approach to language creation and execution across different environments.

    Colin here, creator of Nub. I’ve had the general shape of this in mind for years. Nub runs your code with stock `node`, augmented with a `--require` preload hook[0] that adds a transpiler (oxc-powered, packaged as a Node-API add-on), registers a module resolution hook[1], and injects polyfills as needed for APIs like `Worker`, `Temporal`, etc. All purely additive, your code ultimately runs using Node’s actual engine & stdlib implementations.

  • A small programming language where everything is pass-by-valueJan 2026 · github.com · ▲91

    This is a hobby project of mine that I started a few years ago to learn about programming language implementation. It was created 95% without AI, although a few recent commits include code from Gemini CLI. I started out following Crafting Interpreters, but gradually branched off that until I had almost nothing left in common. Tech stack: Rust, Cranelift (JIT compilation), LALRPOP (parser). Original title: "A small programming language where everything is a value" (edited based on comments)
