Vala Description
Vala is a programming language that uses modern high-level abstractions and does not impose additional runtime requirements. Vala can be used in many other situations where native binaries are needed. More. GNOME Discourse is available for general discussion and developer discussions. For questions and discussions with developers, you can also join the Vala Matrix channel. Vala is a cross-platform development tool that includes third party distributions that provide binaries for Windows, macOS Linux, BSDs, and other platforms.

AppleScript
AppleScript is Apple's scripting language. AppleScript allows users to control scriptable Macintosh apps, as well parts of macOS. You can create scripts and written instructions to automate repetitive tasks and combine features of multiple scriptable applications. AppleScript 2.0 supports scripts created for AppleScript versions 1.1 to 1.10.7. It also supports scripting extensions for AppleScript 1.5 and later for macOS. A scriptable application can be controlled with a script. AppleScript is able to respond to messages sent between applications, called Apple Events, when a script command targets an application. AppleScript has a limited set of commands. However, it provides a framework that you can use to plug in many other commands, such as those provided by scriptable macOS parts and scriptable applications.

D
D is a general-purpose programming languages with static typing, system-level access and C-like syntax. The D Programming Language allows you to write fast, read fast and run fast. D is possible thanks to the dedication and hard work of many volunteers and the coordination and outreach by the D Language Foundation, which is a 501(c),(3) non-profit organization. Support the Foundation to help develop the D language and grow our community. You can discuss D on the forums, join IRC channel, read the official Blog, and follow us on Twitter. You can browse the wiki to see the vision and high-level goals of the D Language Foundation. Refer to the Phobos documentation and the language specification. The DMD manual explains how to use the compiler. To deepen your understanding, you can read various articles.

Zig
Zig is a general purpose programming language and toolchain that allows you to maintain robust, optimal, and reusable software.
Instead of worrying about your programming language knowledge, focus on debugging the application.
A new approach to metaprogramming that relies on compile-time execution and lazy evaluation
No hidden control flow.
There are no hidden memory allocations.
No preprocessor, no macros.
Any function can be called at compile-time
You can manipulate types as values with no runtime overhead.
Comptime imitates the target architecture.
Zig is a zero-dependency drop-in C/C++ compiler, which supports cross-compilation right out-of the box.
Use zig build to ensure consistency across platforms.
You can add a Zig compilation unit into C/C++ projects. Cross-language LTO is automatically enabled.

XAML
XAML can be used as a declarative markup language. XAML is a declarative markup language that can be applied to the.NET Core programming system. It makes it easier to create a UI for a.NET Core application. You can create visible UI elements using the declarative XAML Markup. Then, you can separate the UI definition and the run-time logic using code-behind file that is joined to the markup via partial class definitions. XAML represents the instantiation objects in a set of backing types that are defined in assemblies. This is in contrast to other markup languages that are interpreted languages without a direct connection to a backing types system. XAML allows for a workflow that allows two parties to work together on the UI and logic of an app using different tools. XAML files can be represented as text and have the.xaml extension. You can encode the files using any XML encoding but UTF-8 is most common.
