kaoscript

What's kaoscript?

kaoscript is programming language combining features from ES7, CoffeeScript, TypeScript, Rust, Swift, C# and more.

Currently, kaoscript is transpiled to JavaScript.

Features

• easy syntax: close to ES6 and Swift
• fully OOP: extendable native classes but fully compatible with the node.js
• partial/impl paradigm
• async/await: don't need ES7
• check variables existences
• automatically declare variable: i = 0 => let i = 0
• array range
• for/to, for/til, for/in, for/of, for/range, until: no more for(;;)
• comprehensions
• typed or not let i = 0 or let i: Number = 0
• automatic typing: on assignement with operator :=
• type alias: type float = Number
• generics
• chained operations: 1 < x < 10
• enum
• namespace
• import/export: import is the equivalent of node.js require
• require: declare requirements (only for a module)
• extern/declare: explicit global scope
• typed import: import non-kaoscript objects and indicate their types
• function overloading
• advanced parameters
• error handling: by default, it's à la Java but it's configurable
• attributes
• conditional compilation
• macro
