I built AAYU β€” a programming language better than other.

I built AAYU β€” a programming language, from the ground up πŸš€

Not a wrapper. Not a framework. A real language: lexer β†’ parser β†’
semantic analysis β†’ IR (HIR/MIR/LIR) β†’ bytecode β†’ runtime.

Two ways to run it:

  • aayu run β†’ VM, instant start, great for learning
  • aayu build β†’ compiles through C + gcc -O3 into a real native binary

Measured it myself, no marketing numbers:
fib(30) β†’ native: ~29ms | Python 3.12: ~78ms
That's real, reproducible, ~2-3x faster than Python on number-heavy code.

Built the compiler pipeline, the VM, the native backend, the CLI β€”
all of it, solo. AI tools helped me write code faster. They didn't
design the architecture or make the decisions β€” I did. Same as any
dev using an IDE with autocomplete.

v1.0 is out. It's young β€” bugs exist, I'm not hiding that. But the
core language works, and I'm fixing it in public.

Try it. Break it. Tell me what's wrong. That's how it gets better.
