I implemented generics in my programming language

It took a while to implement, though now I have generic functions working in Axe. Documentation, repository and site attached.

In plain words

Axe is a programming language that now supports generic functions. The creator has implemented this feature after significant development work and provides documentation, a repository, and a website for developers interested in using or learning about the language. Generic functions allow developers to write flexible, reusable code that works across different data types.

    Fuse – statically typed functional programming languageAug 2026 · fuselang.org · ▲121

    Hi HN! I've been working on the fuse programming language, it's a statically typed purely functional language with higher-kinder types and ad-hoc polymorphism. It compiles to the GRIN whole-program optimizer, producing LLVM-generated native code. Fuse supports ADTs, Generics, Type Methods, Traits, Pattern matching etc. all in a functional style with no mutations. I’ve been developing the language for 5 years, with code written in Scala. I’ve started coding the language from the base of System F that was implemented as part of the book: Types and Programming Languages (tapl). And then…

    Algorithms and Data Structures in TypeScript – Free Book (~400 Pages)Mar 2026 · amoilanen.github.io · ▲65

    I started writing this book 10 years ago in JavaScript, got through a few chapters (asymptotic notation, basic techniques, start of sorting), and then abandoned it. Recently I picked it back up, converted everything to TypeScript, and used AI (Zenflow [1] + Claude Opus 4.6) to complete the remaining chapters. I provided the structure, direction, and initial chapters; the AI generated the bulk of the remaining content under a spec-driven workflow. The book covers roughly a first 1-2 year CS curriculum: sorting, dynamic programming, graph algorithms, trees, heaps, hash tables, and more. All…

    G# –> a new dotnet language like Go/Swift/Kotlin with C# interopJun 2026 · davidobando.github.io · ▲9

    I started working on this back in 2019, mostly as a design idea. Over the last month I made a big push to make it 100% usable and replace C# in all my personal projects. I now feel it's solid enough to gather feedback from other developers. If you take it for a spin, I hope you enjoy it and send your thoughts!

    SharpTS – Run TypeScript Natively on .NET via AOT CompilationJan 2026 · github.com · ▲6

    Hey HN! I'm the author of SharpTS, a TypeScript interpreter and ahead-of-time compiler written in C#. *What makes it different:* - Dual execution modes - interpret TypeScript directly OR compile to native .NET executables - Full C# interop - compile TypeScript to DLLs that C# projects can reference with full type safety *What works today:* - Core TypeScript: classes, interfaces, generics, async/await, decorators - Advanced types: union/intersection types, literal types, type guards - Compiles to verifiable .NET IL with performance comparable to hand-written C# - 80+ unit tests,…

  • Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…

    Community, All the HN belong to you. This is an archive of hacker news that fits in your browser. When I made HN Made of Primes I realized I could probably do this offline sqlite&#x2F;wasm thing with the whole GBs of archive. The whole dataset. So I tried it, and this is it. Have Hacker News on your device. Go to this repo (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;DOSAYGO-STUDIO&#x2F;HackerBook): you can download it. Big Query -> ETL -> npx serve docs - that's it. 20 years of HN arguments and beauty, can be yours forever. So they'll never die. Ever. It's the unkillable static archive of HN and it's…
