In plain words

Cicada is a tool for writing CI/CD pipelines using TypeScript instead of traditional configuration languages. It allows developers to define continuous integration and deployment workflows programmatically in TypeScript, making pipelines more flexible and easier to version control alongside code. The product targets software teams who prefer working in TypeScript and want a code-first approach to pipeline automation rather than YAML-based configuration files.

    I wrote a lightweight scripting language that runs together with C. Specifically, it's a C library, you run it through a C function call, and it can callback your own C functions. Compiles to ~250 kB. No dependencies beyond the C standard library. Key language features: * Uses aliases not pointers, so it's memory-safe * Arrays are N-dimensional and resizable * Runs scripts or its own 'shell' * Error trapping * Methods, inheritance, etc. * Customizable syntax
