Ginger
A programming language utilizing a graph datastructure for syntax. Currently in super-early-alpha-don't-actually-use-this-for-anything development.
Development
Current efforts on ginger are focused on a golang-based virtual machine, which will then be used to bootstrap the language. go >=1.18 is required for this vm.
If you are on a linux-amd64 machine with nix installed, you can run:
nix-shell -A shell
from the repo root and you will be dropped into a shell with all dependencies
(including the correct go version) in your PATH, ready to use. This could
probably be expanded to other OSs/architectures easily, if you care to do so
please check out the default.nix file and submit a PR!
Demo
An example program which computes the Nth fibonacci number can be found at
examples/fib.gg. You can try it out by doing:
go run ./cmd/eval/main.go "$(cat examples/fib.gg)" 5
Where you can replace 5 with any number.
