Welcome to the official Burg wiki and documentation!!!

Get Started

To install the Burg interpreter and the Burg REPL (BurgR), you can easily go to the releases page and install the zip file suited for your operating system (NOTE: Does not support x32 processes for the moment, you must use a computer with an x64 processor OR clone the repository and run using dotnet run in the project folder (you must have .NET 6.0^ installed on your machine)). Then, create a file ending in ".brg" (or not lol) and get started by writing a simple "Hello, World!" program:

out("Hello, World!"); # lines must end in semicolons

Then, to run your program, it's easy! Remember when we downloaded that zip file? Well, unzip it, and scroll a bit to find the "Burg.exe" executable! If you run it as is, it will run BurgR (in REPL Mode). To run your file, open your terminal, run the executable through the terminal, and as an argument pass in your Burg file's path! eg:

./Burg.exe C:\\myCoolBurgProgram.brg
