Description
A language resembling TypeScript designed for WebAssembly is known as AssemblyScript.
This language is specifically tailored to leverage the capabilities of WebAssembly, allowing developers to have granular control over their applications.
Thanks to its resemblance to TypeScript, developers can easily compile their code to WebAssembly without the need to learn a completely different programming language.
AssemblyScript seamlessly fits into the existing web development ecosystem, requiring no cumbersome toolchain installations; a simple npm install is all that's needed to get started.
It is an open-source project available under the Apache License, Version 2.0, and is built on top of Binaryen while adhering to the WebAssembly standards.
AssemblyScript is supported and maintained by a talented group of contributors who are dedicated to enhancing its capabilities and community.
Description
The syntax of Crystal draws significant inspiration from Ruby, making it both intuitive to read and straightforward to write, which particularly benefits developers who are already familiar with Ruby due to a reduced learning curve. Additionally, Crystal employs static type-checking, ensuring that any type-related errors are identified early during compilation, thus preventing issues that could arise at runtime. To maintain simplicity and cleanliness within the language, it incorporates built-in type inference, meaning that developers often do not need to include explicit type annotations. In Crystal, all types are inherently non-nilable, and available variables are defined as a combination of the type and nil, allowing the compiler to perform checks for null references at compile time. Furthermore, Crystal features a robust macro system designed for metaprogramming, which encompasses a variety of functionalities, including basic templating, AST inspection, type inspection, and the capability to execute arbitrary external programs. This powerful macro system enhances the language's flexibility and allows for more dynamic code generation and manipulation.
