Bixbite

Bixbite is a typed superset of Ruby that compiles .bixb source files into standard Ruby .rb files.

It follows a TypeScript-style model:

• Types exist at development time.
• Output is normal Ruby.
• Runtime behavior is unchanged.
• Types are enforced by the Bixbite compiler during build/check.

Example

Input (src/example.bixb):

def add(x: Integer, y: Integer) -> Integer
  x + y
end

Output (build/example.rb):

# GENERATED BY BIXBITE - DO NOT EDIT
# Source: src/example.bixb

def add(x, y)
  x + y
end

Layout

src/     # .bixb source files
build/   # generated .rb output (gitignored)

Usage (planned)

bixbite build
bixbite check

Development
