The Language I Wish I Used

language.md

• native utf-8 (mutable vector strings, immutable slices for statics)
• namespaces/modules
• implicit memory management (like rust), or explicit with optional garbage collection (full GC, or leak/use-after-free checker)
• explicit move/copy/borrow semantics
• generics
• native map/list/vector support (like clojure)
• native iterator support (like linq)
• structs/enums/tagged unions
• rust style function signatures, incl. explicit self parameter
• functions return tuples
• function overloading
• only one 'type' of function
• only sized int types
• native null support (like c# primatives)
• native result support
• better syntax for block-level returns
• native set operator support (i.e. 'c' in {'a', 'b', 'c'} => true)
• async or greenthread support
