Nex is a small language with a small runtime: C/Go/Rust-flavoured syntax, static types with local inference, structs, enums and pattern matching, and no build boilerplate.
Programs are interpreted during development and compiled to native code through LLVM (and to WebAssembly) for release. It's still unfinished — the lexer is the only working stage today.
Highlights
- Sixteen-phase roadmap from lexer to a tagged v0.1.0 release.
- Working lexer: the driver dumps a token stream for any .nex file.
- Documentation site with the full language spec, built with mdBook.
