Discussion on: Yet another programming language Unv

[Kavindu Santhusa]

Hi Camille,

Thanks for your kind words.

I got this idea to create a programming language when I was younger than 10 years. It was similar to HTML.

Some programming languages are static and some of them are dynamic. static ones have unfriendly syntax. But they are easy to maintain. dynamic ones like python have friendly syntax. But they are somewhat buggy due to dynamic nature.

In my point of view, JavaScript is the most universal programming language because it can be used to develop web, mobile(react native...), desktop(electron...), IOT.
Unv combined this three features,

• static
• easy syntax
• universal

Instead of creating own compiler or interpreter. Unv depends on existing programming languages. So it's universal.

Great! But did you follow a particular tutorial to learn how to create this programming language?

[Kavindu Santhusa]

I had read tons of tutorials. But no one helped me.

[Camille Rakotoarisoa]

Did you find them on the Internet?

[Kavindu Santhusa]

Ya from google search

[Camille Rakotoarisoa]

Okay, thank you very much !! Good luck with your projects ! :)

[Kavindu Santhusa]

I am looking for contributors for this project. Can you join Unv organisation

[Camille Rakotoarisoa]

I'm really sorry but at the moment I don't have much time to contribute to projects. But I note the proposal! And thanks for this one

This is how compiler works.

# input code
if 'Unv is awesome!'
    print('Hello World!')
# keep editing for live results

First remove comments and handle strings

if 'Unv is awesome!'
    print('Hello World!')

First slice the code by newlines

if 'Unv is awesome!'

    print('Hello World!')

Then convert the indention to brackets

if 'Unv is awesome!' {
    print('Hello World!')
}

Then add parentheses when needed

if ('Unv is awesome!') {
    print('Hello World!')
}

Then Its valid JavaScript
