In plain words

Shade is a programming language that combines elements from C, Go, and Haskell. It was designed to bring together features from these three languages into a single system. The language is available on GitHub for developers interested in exploring its syntax and capabilities. Shade caters to programmers looking to experiment with a hybrid approach to language design that draws from both systems programming and functional programming paradigms.

    Aria is a modern, dynamic scripting language. It is meant to be a "sweet spot" language, easy to pick-up and enjoyable to use. It comes with a familiar C-style syntax, and draws inspiration from a variety of languages. It has a small but usable standard library and strives to be a low-ceremony-get-stuff-done kind of language. It is currently at version 0.9 and I would love feedback as I work towards getting it to 1.0.
