#opensource #rust #programminglanguage #scripting

KASDVSO – KAS Language

KASDVSO is an experimental scripting language runtime written in Rust.
The main focus of this project is the KAS language itself, not packages or tooling.

⚠️ IMPORTANT
This language is under heavy and active development.
Breaking changes are expected.
The language is NOT stable.

What is KAS?

KAS is a simple and minimal scripting language designed to explore:

  • Language and runtime design
  • Script execution models
  • Modular script loading
  • Native integration with Rust
  • Explicit behavior without hidden magic

KAS is intentionally minimal.
Every feature is added deliberately and step-by-step.

KAS Language Basics

Variables 

let x = 10
let name = "KAS"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Functions 

fn add(a, b) {
    return a + b
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Function Calls 

print add(2, 3)
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Printing 

print "Hello from KAS"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Sleep 

sleep(2000)
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Multi-File Scripts 

import "./utils.kas"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Execution Model

  • Scripts are executed sequentially
  • Imported files are executed once
  • No hidden global state

Native Integration

Native modules are written in Rust and exposed directly to KAS.

Project Status

UNDER HEAVY DEVELOPMENT

Final Notes

KAS is not finished.
KAS is not stable.
KAS is not pretending to be complete.
