Neut

Neut is a functional programming language with static memory management.

Key Features

• Full λ-calculus support
• Predictable automatic memory management
• The absence of annotations to the type system when achieving both of the above

Neut doesn't use GCs or regions. Instead, it takes a type-directed approach to handle resources.

Basic Characteristics

• Call by value
• Impure
• Compiles to LLVM IR and binary
• The type system ≒ CoC + ADT + fix - universe hierarchy
  • That is, the usual one in functional programming, but a bit generalized
• Built-in LSP support
• Built-in rapid prototyping experience like scripting languages
• Built-in formatter like Go
