The rebirth of xent! ( programming language )

The Gallery
1

ok, so, back in around january, the language xen text ( known as zent, xent, or just xen text ), came onto the battle grounds of the languages of the world, and today, xent gets an upgrade to its arsenal, that’s right, my little friend, is becoming 10 times larger, and less buggy!

soon it will be taking a step closer to the world stage, where it belongs!

note: xent will not be here on glitch UNTIL I have completely rewritten it, i will also be writing a new version of xent in typescript ( had to force reset my chromebook to be able to download nodejs, so, please, don’t be negative ), and that sums everything up…

also, xent is going to also from now on, log all errors to a local file, which me and @random ( assistant in making xent ), would like to have sent to us so we can make the language better!

As well as updates to our lexer, I hopefully plan on making the CLI better! (eg, adding it as a usable linux command)

By the way, you can compile nodejs to native binaries without bundling nodejs and get speedups


I sent this to Jonyk but I don’t think he found where I pinged

Good to know @javaarchive!

Basically their goal is to make a JS programmer as fast as a C programmer. It can actually compile js to native code without a VM.

Noted, do you know of any good python to JS converters?

Skulpt works but doesn’t produce clean js. You could try https://www.transcrypt.org/

Ill give it a try, just so the CLI fits with the typescript theme
