What's kaoscript?

kaoscript is programming language combining features from ES7, CoffeeScript, TypeScript, Rust, Swift, C# and more.

Currently, kaoscript is transpiled to JavaScript.

Features

  • easy syntax: close to ES6 and Swift
  • fully OOP: extendable native classes but fully compatible with the node.js
  • partial/impl paradigm
  • async/await: don't need ES7
  • check variables existences
  • automatically declare variable: i = 0 => let i = 0
  • array range
  • for/to, for/til, for/in, for/of, for/range, until: no more for(;;)
  • comprehensions
  • typed or not let i = 0 or let i: Number = 0
  • automatic typing: on assignement with operator :=
  • type alias: type float = Number
  • generics
  • chained operations: 1 < x < 10
  • enum
  • namespace
  • import/export: import is the equivalent of node.js require
  • require: declare requirements (only for a module)
  • extern/declare: explicit global scope
  • typed import: import non-kaoscript objects and indicate their types
  • function overloading
  • advanced parameters
  • error handling: by default, it's à la Java but it's configurable
  • attributes
  • conditional compilation
  • macro
