A fast, concise, readable, pragmatic and open sourced programming language.

# The Odin Programming Language The Odin programming language is fast, concise, readable, pragmatic and open sourced. It is designed with the intent of replacing C with the following goals: * simplicity * high performance * built for modern systems * joy of programming * metaprogramming Website: [https://odin.handmade.network/](https://odin.handmade.network/) ```go package main import "core:fmt" main :: proc() { program := "+ + * 😃 - /"; accumulator := 0; for token in program { switch token { case '+': accumulator += 1; case '-': accumulator -= 1; case '*': accumulator *= 2; case '/': accumulator /= 2; case '😃': accumulator *= accumulator; case: // Ignore everything else } } fmt.printf("The program \"%s\" calculates the value %d\n", program, accumulator); } ``` ## Demonstrations: * First Talk & Demo - [Talk](https://youtu.be/TMCkT-uASaE?t=338) - [Demo](https://youtu.be/TMCkT-uASaE?t=1800) - [Q&A](https://youtu.be/TMCkT-uASaE?t=5749) * [Composition & Refactorability](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1wemZfcbXM) * [Introspection, Modules, and Record Layout](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFq8rhWhx4s) * [push_allocator & Minimal Dependency Building](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_LGVOAMb78) * [when, for & procedure overloading](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzeOekzyZK8) * [Context Types, Unexported Entities, Labelled Branches](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkHVwT1Qk-g) * [Bit Fields, i128 & u128, Syntax Changes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlTutcLyF64) * [Default and Named Arguments; Explicit Parametric Polymorphism](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XQZE6S6zUU) * [Loadsachanges](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ar0vFMoMtrI) ## Documentation * [Tutorial](https://odin.handmade.network/wiki/3329-odin_tutorial) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://github.com/odin-lang/Odin/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions-(FAQ)) ## Requirements to build and run - Windows * x86-64 * MSVC 2010 installed (C++11 support) * [LLVM binaries](https://github.com/gingerBill/Odin/releases/tag/llvm-4.0-windows) for `opt.exe` and `llc.exe` * Requires MSVC's link.exe as the linker * run `vcvarsall.bat` to setup the path - MacOS * x86-64 * LLVM explicitly installed (`brew install llvm`) * XCode installed (for the linker) - GNU/Linux * x86-64 * Build tools (ld) * LLVM installed * Clang installed (temporary - this is Calling the linker for now) ## Warnings * This is still highly in development and the language's design is quite volatile. * Syntax is not fixed.
