...It provides a clean syntax and semantics that closely mirror classic C while enforcing stricter rules to eliminate common pitfalls like undefined behaviors or hidden conversions that often cause bugs. Zen-C includes a lightweight compiler front-end and runtime that can target multiple platforms, enabling users to compile and run code on both desktop and embedded environments without heavy tooling. Because it prioritizes clarity and predictability, the language makes it easier for learners to understand core systems concepts while still accessing low-level memory control and performance.

...We treat the type as the plan for a program, and use the compiler and type checker as our assistant, guiding us to a complete program that satisfies the type. The more expressive the type is that we give up front, the more confidence we can have that the resulting program will be correct. In Idris, types are first-class constructs in the language. This means types can be passed as arguments to functions, and returned from functions just like any other value, such as numbers, strings, or lists. This is a small but powerful idea, enabling relationships to be expressed between values; for example, that two lists have the same length. ...

...A fast single-pass compiler to tight bytecode and a compact object representation help Wren compete with other dynamic languages. There are lots of scripting languages out there, but many have unusual or non-existent object models. Wren places classes front and center. Lightweight fibers are core to the execution model and let you organize your program into an army of communicating coroutines. Wren is intended for embedding in applications. It has no dependencies, a small standard library, and an easy-to-use C API. It compiles cleanly as C99, C++98 or anything later.
