The ARF programming language.

This is still under development and does not compile things yet. Once complete, it will serve as a temporary compiler that will be used to write a new one using the language itself.

The old repository can be found here.

ARF is a low level language with a focus on organization, modularization, and code clarity. Behind it's avant-garde syntax, its basically just a more refined version of C.

A directory of ARF files is called a module, and modules will compile to object files (one per module) using C as an intermediate language (maybe LLVM IR in the future).

Be sure to visit the wiki for more information.

Planned Features

• Type definition through inheritence
• Struct member functions
• Go-style interfaces
• Generics
• A standard library (that can be dynamically linked)

Checklist

• File reader
• File -> tokens
• Tokens -> syntax tree
• Syntax tree -> semantic tree
• Semantic tree -> C -> object file
• Figure out HOW to implement generics
• Create a standard library

Compiler Progress

• Yellow: needs to be completed for the MVP
• Lime: ongoing progress in this area
• Green: Already completed
