Blade – A simple, fast, clean and dynamic programming language

Hi all, I've been working on a new programming language called Blade for a couple of months now and think it's time I introduced it to people and get reactions and feedbacks. Plus, I need people to test it and find the bugs in it. The repository is at https://github.com/blade-lang/blade and the documentation is in progress and going great at bladelang.com and even though I wanted to wait to write everything before I do this before, I think it's best to get started with letting people know about it now. There are lots of tests in the repository and experienced developers…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hi all, I've been working on a new programming language called Blade for a couple of months now and think it's time I introduced it to people and get reactions and feedbacks. Plus, I need people to test it and find the bugs in it. The repository is at https://github.com/blade-lang/blade and the documentation is in progress and going great at bladelang.com and even though I wanted to wait to write everything before I do this before, I think it's best to get started with letting people know about it now. There are lots of tests in the repository and experienced developers can basically pick up the language looking at those tests and by reading through the bundled libraries. There's also a Visual Studio code extension for easy syntax highlighting in the VS code marketplace (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=blade-lang.blade-vscode). Also, I am greatly wishing that I'll find some contributors through this post who can fix some of the things I might be missing on and who may as well be interested in contributing libraries to it. The process of doing so is really straight forward and I'm available to guide anyone through the process. Feedbacks are highly appreciated and treated with upmost priority. Thanks all!

    Fluent, tiny lang for reactivity and autogradJul 2026 · mlajtos.github.io · ▲6

    After six months of work, I am here again presenting Fluent – a tiny lang which is optimized for differentiable & reactive programming. Since I am not Conal Elliot, don't expect a beautiful theoretical unification of FRP and AD from first principles. Rather, a horrific monster that holds together mostly because a lot of duct-tape. The link points to the semi-interactive tour of the language, which will get the job done much better than I could in here. Hope you hate/like it!

    Silk, a simple systems programming language2020 · ajaymt.github.io · ▲79

    Hi HN! Silk is a project I began working on approximately six months ago without any prior experience or knowledge of compiler design, and it's been a frustrating but fun learning experience. It is very much a work in progress, but I would love to hear feedback of any kind!

    Nous – Open-Source Agent Framework with Autonomous, SWE Agents, WebUI2024 · github.com · ▲155

    Hello HN! The day has finally come to stop adding features and start sharing what I've been building the last 5-6 months. It's a bit of CrewAI, OpenDevon, LangFuse/Cloud all in one, providing devs who prefer TypeScript an integrated framework thats provides a lot out of the box to start experimenting and building agents with. It started after peeking at the LangChain docs a few times and never liking the example code. I began experimenting with automating a simple Jira request from the engineering team to add an index to one of our Google Spanner databases (for context I'm the…

    Learning Project: building an imperative language2020 · ▲36

    Hi! I am doing a learning project, attempting to build an imperative language (and interpreter). The end product will be useless for others, I just want to learn and better understand how to build imperative languages. :) If someone else shares this interest and want to give some good hints on good resources I would be grateful. Currently I am looking at an awesome text by Bob Nystrom. All suggestions and tips on resources are most welcome. I am very much a beginner in this, but I find this topic very fascinating. Mail me or post links here! Cheers! You can try a beta version Online at…

    Hey all My name is Sindre, and I am the CTO of Scrimba (YC S20). For the last 7 years, I have written all my web apps in a full-stack programming language called Imba. It compiles to JavaScript and its main goal is to make web developers more productive. I just launched a major overhaul of Imba, so I wanted to share it here on HN, in case anyone are interested in learning more about it. It is very opinionated, so some of you might not like it, but I would love to hear anyones feedback regardless. Constructive criticism appreciated! The backstory: Imba initially started in 2012 as an effort…

    Hello HN, Over the last year we've been building ente[1], a privacy-friendly, easy-to-use alternative to Google Photos. We've so far built Android[2][3], iOS[4], web[5] apps that encrypt your files and back them up in the background. You can access these across your devices, and share them with other ente users, end-to-end encrypted. You can also use our electron app[6] to maintain a local copy of your backed up files. We've built a fault-tolerant data replication layer that replicates your data to two different storage providers in the EU. We will be providing additional replicas as an…
