TypeScript is an open source programming language that is a typed superset of JavaScript. It adds optional static typing to JavaScript, which can support tools for large-scale JavaScript applications for any browser, host and OS. TypeScript compiles to clean, simple JavaScript, and uses existing JavaScript code and libraries. It also offers support for the latest and evolving JavaScript features, such as async functions and decorators.

...Despite being simple, V gives a lot of power to the developer and can be used in pretty much every field, including systems programming, webdev, gamedev, GUI, mobile, science, embedded, tooling, etc. V avoids doing unnecessary allocations in the first place by using value types, and string buffers, promoting a simple abstraction-free code style. Most objects (~90-100%) are freed by V's auto-free engine: the compiler inserts necessary free calls automatically during compilation. A remaining small percentage of objects is freed via GC. The developer doesn't need to change anything in their code. "It just works", like in Python, Go, or Java, except there's no heavy GC tracing everything or expensive RC for each object.

...It spans foundational topics like lambda calculus, type systems, interpreters, compilers, and formal semantics, while also pointing to contemporary areas such as effect systems, dependent types, and verification. Each section clusters materials by theme so learners can build understanding step by step instead of grazing at random. The list emphasizes primary sources and high-quality lectures, encouraging readers to engage with rigorous treatments rather than superficial summaries. It’s designed to serve both as a starting guide for newcomers and as a reference index for experienced practitioners, filling in gaps. ...
