Zero is an experimental programming language from Vercel Labs designed with AI agents as first-class users. The project explores what a language, tooling system, and standard library might look like if agents need to read, debug, repair, and ship code reliably. It focuses on a small and regular language surface, structured diagnostics, predictable tooling, and machine-readable outputs. Zero is still pre-1 and intentionally unstable, so its syntax and APIs are meant for exploration rather than production use. ...

...It eliminates many common language features (e.g., ternary operators) in favour of a consistent, minimal syntax: for example it uses only switch statements for control flow and has only one comparison operator. OK? also treats errors as plain values (strings/arrays) and removes inheritance in favour of what it calls “evolution over composition.” The language emphasises readability and pushing logic out into functions so cases remain simple. It includes concurrency via a map function that executes callbacks in parallel. The project is illustrative of Duffield’s vision: code should feel “magical to write” by removing what is unnecessary.

... * Provide a stricter and more platform-independent type system than C. * Allow direct use of existing C and platform (e.g. Win32 API) libraries. This phrase from the "SPL Language Reference" says it all: "One could say SPL is what C should have been, were it not for the limitations of the time when C was designed".

...This is designed to be clean & easy. It's an interpreter, It was written in C++. Not a singe line of code was written by an adult (except the standard c++ libraries). Give it a try and tell me what you think. It's a work in progress so there are only input and output functions, variables and if statements. Because it's at an early stage in design, any ideas you give me now can be integrated into language while it's still possible. It is currently in active development. New versions are released every week. So keep on checking. ...
