claro-lang

My hobby-horse programming language where I'll attempt to implement, from scratch, everything that I dream of having in other languages. This is likely to be forever in flux, but we'll start somewhere.

Read the Comprehensive User Docs

Please understand that these docs are a work in progress, and while they do cover a large chunk of the language features, there is still more documentation to come including better examples and clearer explanations.

Learn Claro By Example!

Check out the example Claro programs.

Try it Out in a GitHub Codespace!

Once you're in VSCode in your codespace, navigate to

src/java/com/claro/claro_programs/BUILD

and you should be able to run any of the claro_binary Bazel Build targets by clicking the Run button rendered inline above the target.

In case the VSCode Bazel Plugin Isn't Working

...you can always manually run the programs manually by finding the corresponding build target name and running a command like the following:

bazel run --nojava_header_compilation //src/java/com/claro/claro_programs:<replace this with your desired build target>

Try it Out Online at riju.codes/claro!

Please keep in mind that in the current state of the world, Riju is generally behind the latest state of Claro development since I don't control Riju and can't redeploy for each new commit to this repo. If you want the latest of the latest then read the below to build Claro locally.
