Hi! In this repository, I tinker with different programming language ideas. I explore languages with different language complexity vs. efficiency vs. ergonomics tradeoffs.

The most interesting bits:

• Thyme: A virtual machine for a stack-based byte code that operates on a heap of immutable objects. Also contains a programming language, which is basically just the untyped lambda calculus with Lisp syntax.
  thyme/ contains the Zig implementation.
• Ground: A low-level stack-based byte code.
  ground/readme.md contains the specification.
  I wrote a Ground interpreter in Zig, but that's private for now.
• Grass (Ground Assembly): An assembly language for crafting binary files.
  grass/readme.md contains more info.
  grass/grass.grass contains a self-hosted Grass compiler that is not yet finished.
• Plum (Programming Language Used by Marcel): A high-level functional programming language with immutable data structures, pure functions, and garbage collection.
  plum/readme.md contains more info.
  martinaise/plum contains a Plum compiler written in Martinaise, another programming language I created.
  plum/core contains the Plum standard library.
