About The Project

Atlas77 is an experimental statically typed programming language with a strong interop with Rust. It will run on a custom VM. I'll implement a JIT compiler using Cranelift later on. (There will be an AOT compiler too)

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Rust Compiler

  curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
  

Or directly from their website: Rust

Installation

1. Install it from Cargo

   cargo install atlas_77
   

2. Use it as a CLI

   atlas_77 --help
   

3. Enjoy!

Usage

Fibonacci Example

import "std/io"

func fib(n: i64) -> i64 {
    if n <= 1 {
        return n;
    }
    return fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2);
}

func main() -> i64 {
    let n: i64 = 10;
    print_int(fib(n));
}

Roadmap

v0.3 "Foundation"

Deprecated, if you wanna know more about the v0.3.x, check the releases page.

• v0.3
• v0.3.1

v0.4 "Keystone"

Deprecated, if you wanna know more about the v0.4, check the releases page.

• v0.4 "Keystone"

v0.5 Phoenix Release Timeline

The v0.5 is a complete rewrite of Atlas77, it aligns better with the end goal of the language (see Goal of the language).

NB: up until the v1.0 the language will always be in alpha, tho I'll try to make every release as stable as possible. I hope I can release the v0.5 this month

Legend

• 💤: Not implemented
• 💭: Being thought of
• 🔧: Being implemented
• ✅: Working

Stability and Refinement

As the language is still in alpha (not 1.0 yet), I won't make "alpha"/"beta" build, it doesn't really make sense.

The beta phase (aka after 0.5.2 and beyond) will focus on stabilizing the language. All features will be finalized, tested extensively, and optimized for real-world use. This phase will serve as a release candidate.

See the open issues for a full list of proposed features (and known issues).

Goal of the language

• Boostrapping the compiler
• Making a simple ECS
• Making a simple Game Engine with Vulkan bindings (maybe OpenGL too)

At least it should be possible to make one with Atlas77

• Using BlueEngine from the language (even if it's not really most efficient)
• Ahead of time compilation using cranelift
• Making the package manager directly in Atlas77
