Luau
Fast, small, safe, gradually typed embeddable scripting language
It is designed to be backward compatible with Lua 5.1, as well as incorporating some features from future Lua releases, but also expands the feature set (most notably with type annotations). Luau is largely implemented from scratch, with the language runtime being a very heavily modified version of Lua 5.1 runtime, with a completely rewritten interpreter and other performance innovations. The runtime mostly preserves Lua 5.1 API, so existing bindings should be more or less compatible with a few caveats. Luau is used by Roblox game developers to write game code, as well as by Roblox engineers to implement large parts of the user-facing application code as well as portions of the editor (Roblox Studio) as plugins. Roblox chose to open-source Luau to foster collaboration within the Roblox community as well as to allow other companies and communities to benefit from the ongoing language and runtime innovation. As a consequence, Luau is now also used by games like Alan Wake 2 and Warframe. -

TypeSpec is excellent for generating many different API description formats, client and service codes, documentation, and many other assets. All this while keeping your TypeSpec definition as a single source of truth. Using TypeSpec, you can create reusable patterns for all aspects of an API and package those reusable patterns into libraries. These patterns establish "guardrails" for API designers and make it easier to follow best practices than to deviate from them. TypeSpec also has a rich linter framework with the ability to flag anti-patterns as well as an emitter framework that lets you control the output to ensure it follows the patterns you want. -

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. -

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! -

Vercel Zero
The programming language for agents
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. The project includes commands for checking, running, building, graph inspection, size reporting, diagnostics, and repair-oriented workflows. Its main goal is to create a systems-oriented language environment that agents can understand and act on without relying only on human-readable compiler messages.
