Chez Scheme
A programming language and an implementation of that language
Chez Scheme is both a programming language and an implementation of that language, with supporting tools and documentation. As a superset of the language described in the Revised6 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme (R6RS), Chez Scheme supports all standard features of Scheme, including first-class procedures, proper treatment of tail calls, continuations, user-defined records, libraries, exceptions, and hygienic macro expansion. The Chez Scheme implementation consists of a compiler, run-time system, and programming environment. Although an interpreter is available, all code is compiled by default. Source code is compiled on-the-fly when loaded from a source file or entered via the shell. A source file can also be precompiled into a stored binary form and automatically recompiled when its dependencies change. Whether compiling on the fly or precompiling, the compiler produces optimized machine code, with some optimization across separately compiled library boundaries. -

Lombok
New additions to the Java programming language
Project Lombok is a java library that automatically plugs into your editor and build tools, spicing up your java. Never write another getter or equals method again, with one annotation your class has a fully featured builder, Automate your logging variables, and much more. Project Lombok is available as a single jar file on the project site. It includes the APIs for development as an installer for IDE integration. On most systems, simply double-clicking the jar file will launch the installer. The installer will attempt to detect the location of a supported IDE. If it cannot correctly determine where the IDE is installed, the location can be specified manually. Simply click "Install/Update," and IDE integration is complete. There are a number of annotations in Project Lombok to allow for more fine grained control over the structure and behavior of a class. -

MarkovJunior
Probabilistic language based on pattern matching
The MarkovJunior project is a procedural generation engine that uses rule-based systems inspired by Markov processes to create complex structures and patterns. It allows users to define transformation rules that iteratively modify a grid or space, producing outputs such as textures, maps, and architectural layouts. The system is highly flexible, supporting both deterministic and probabilistic rule application to generate diverse results. It is particularly popular in game development and generative art, where procedural content can enhance variability and creativity. The project provides tools for defining rules, visualizing outputs, and experimenting with different configurations. Its design emphasizes simplicity while still enabling complex emergent behavior. Overall, MarkovJunior is a powerful framework for procedural generation using rule-based approaches. -

Modern C++ Programming
Modern C++ Programming Course
Modern-CPP-Programming is a teaching repository that introduces practical C++11/14/17 features through focused examples, exercises, and notes. It walks through core language topics like RAII, move semantics, templates and metaprogramming, lambdas, and smart pointers with an eye toward real-world patterns. Concurrency and performance enter the picture via threads, atomics, futures, and memory considerations, helping learners reason about correctness and speed. The materials highlight best practices—value semantics, const-correctness, and zero-cost abstractions—while cautioning against common pitfalls inherited from older C++ idioms. Build and tooling conventions (e.g., CMake, testing frameworks, static analyzers) are woven into examples so projects are reproducible and portable. By combining concise snippets with progressively more complex tasks, the repo serves as both a quick reference and a guided path to writing modern, maintainable C++. -

Racket
The Racket repository
Racket is a general-purpose programming language and an ecosystem for language-oriented programming. This repository holds the source code for the core of Racket plus some related packages. The rest of the Racket distribution source code is in other repositories, mostly under the Racket GitHub organization. Racket programmers typically program with functions, records, objects, exceptions, regular expressions, modules, and threads. That is, instead of a “minimalist” language, which is the way that Scheme is often described, Racket offers a rich language with an extensive set of libraries and tools. Libraries are not restricted to exporting values, such as functions; they can also define new syntactic forms. In this sense, Racket isn’t exactly a language at all; it’s more of an idea for how to structure a language so that you can extend it or create entirely new languages. -

Starlark in Go
Starlark in Go: the Starlark configuration language, implemented in Go
starlark-go is the official Go implementation of the Starlark programming language, a Python-like, dynamically typed configuration and scripting language originally developed for the Bazel build system. Starlark combines Python’s expressiveness and readability with deterministic execution, making it ideal for defining build configurations, scripting automation, and embedding domain-specific logic in applications. The Go-based interpreter allows developers to run or embed Starlark programs directly within Go applications, extending them with user-defined scripts and configurable logic. Unlike Python, Starlark supports parallel execution across multiple threads and maintains deterministic behavior, making it suitable for scalable and reproducible workloads. It offers familiar syntax features such as dictionaries, lists, and first-class functions with lexical scoping. -

OCaml
The core OCaml system: compilers, runtime system, base libraries
OCaml is a general-purpose, industrial-strength programming language with an emphasis on expressiveness and safety. OCaml’s powerful type system means more bugs are caught at compile-time, and large, complex codebases are easier to maintain. This makes it a good language for running critical code. At the same time, sophisticated inference makes the type system unobtrusive, creating a smooth developer experience. OCaml has two compilers. One is a bytecode compiler that generates small, portable executables and is very fast. The other is a native code compiler that produces more efficient machine code; its performance matches the highest standards of modern compilers. OCaml has great support for the most popular editors. VS Code is recommended for beginners, and for power users there is deep integration with Vim and Emacs. OCaml has a rich and dynamic community and best-in-class tooling. -

Tidal
Pattern language
Tidal Cycles (or just Tidal for short) is software for making patterns with code, whether live coding music at algoraves or composing in the studio. It includes a simple and flexible notation for rhythmic sequences and an extensive library of patterning functions for combining and transforming them. This allows you to quickly create complex patterns from simple ingredients. By default, sound is made with the featureful SuperDirt synth/sampler, but you can control other synths using Open Sound Control (OSC) or MIDI. Whether you're using SuperDirt or a synth, every filter and effect can be manipulated independently with Tidal patterns. Tidal is embedded in the Haskell language, although you don't have to learn Haskell to learn Tidal. You can learn Tidal through experimentation and play, most Tidal coders have little or no experience in software engineering. -

Wasp
A programming language that understands what a web app is
Wasp (Web Application Specification Language) is a declarative DSL (domain-specific language) for developing, building and deploying modern full-stack web apps with less code. Concepts such as app, page, user, login, frontend, production, etc. are baked into the language, bringing a new level of expressiveness and allowing you to get more work done with fewer lines of code. While describing high-level features with Wasp, you still write the rest of your logic in your favorite technologies (currently React, NodeJS, Prisma). Wasp is in alpha and is therefore likely to change a lot, have bugs and miss important features. Due to its expressiveness, you can create and deploy a production-ready web app from scratch with very few lines of concise, consistent, declarative code. When you need more control than Wasp offers, you can write code in existing technologies such as js/html/css/... and combine it with Wasp code! -

Agda
Agda is a dependently typed programming language
Agda is a dependently typed, total functional programming language and interactive theorem prover based on Martin-Löf’s type theory. It allows expressing programs and proofs in the same language, using the Curry–Howard correspondence. It features interactive development via Emacs, Atom, or VS Code. Agda is a dependently typed functional programming language. It has inductive families, i.e., data types which depend on values, such as the type of vectors of a given length. It also has parametrised modules, mixfix operators, Unicode characters, and an interactive Emacs interface which can assist the programmer in writing the program. Agda is a proof assistant. It is an interactive system for writing and checking proofs. Agda is based on intuitionistic type theory, a foundational system for constructive mathematics developed by the Swedish logician Per Martin-Löf. It has many similarities with other proof assistants based on dependent types, such as Coq, Epigram, Matita and NuPRL. -

ArnoldC
Arnold Schwarzenegger based programming language
ArnoldC is a programming language built as a joke language, where the entire syntax is based on quotes from Arnold Schwarzenegger movies. Instead of conventional keywords and operators, it uses memorable movie lines to represent programming constructs like conditionals, loops, and functions. For example, “IT’S SHOWTIME” starts the main method, “TALK TO THE HAND” represents output, and “I’LL BE BACK” denotes a return statement. While humorous in nature, the language is fully functional and can be used to write real programs, showcasing how flexible compiler and interpreter design can be. The project is a playful experiment in esoteric programming languages, intended to entertain developers while also serving as an example of how language parsing and compilation can work with unconventional syntax. It demonstrates the overlap between pop culture and software development, turning famous lines into executable logic. -

Mint
A refreshing programming language for the front-end web
Mint has all the tools you need to write error-free, easily readable, and maintainable applications in record time. In Mint you can style elements directly with CSS using style blocks. Inside a style block, you can nest as many sub selectors and media queries as you like. Interpolate any Mint expressions in any value using the interpolation syntax. You can even use if and case expressions inside any block to apply styles conditionally. In Mint a store contains and manages some data. Stores are globally accessible and can be connected to components. When the data in a store changes the connected components are re-rendered. In Mint routing is a language feature instead of a library. Routes can be defined in a routes block, with support for typed path parameters. The runtime handles clicks on anchor tags and navigates in a smart way so you don't have to. You can inline any JavaScript code easily by using bacticks. -

R Source
Read-only mirror of R source code
The wch/r-source repository is a read-only mirror of the official R language source code, maintained to reflect the upstream Subversion (SVN) R core development tree. This mirror provides public visibility into R’s internals—everything from the interpreter, base and recommended packages, documentation, and C/Fortran code under the hood. It is updated hourly to stay in sync with the upstream SVN. Although it mirrors the R source for browsing and reference, it is not the “canonical development repo* (i.e. you can’t submit pull requests via that mirror). The repository includes build instructions, the full directory structure (src, src/library, doc, etc.), licensing information (GPL-2.0), and documentation. Developers, package authors, and curious users often browse this mirror to inspect implementation details, debug issues, or see how base functions are implemented in C or Fortran. -
