Simple
Identity-first, strictly typed programming language with portable bytecode VM
Visit jjldonley.github.io ↗What is Simple?
Simple is a statically typed, general-purpose programming language that compiles to portable bytecode for the Simple VM. It features strict type checking, explicit control flow, and runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows. The language includes modules, imports, enums, FFI bindings, and optional LLVM JIT acceleration for supported platforms.
Designed for developers who want quick scripting with type safety and portable distribution, Simple provides a complete pipeline from source code through an intermediate representation to bytecode execution. The maker reports that significant portions of the tooling and iteration were developed with AI assistance during the project.
