Welcome to Swym. This programming language is designed to let you Say What You Mean, as clearly and elegantly as possible. (It's pronounced "swim", in case you were wondering.)
EGL is not just another language (really). Our philosophy is that developing for a new platform should not force learning a new language.
Common language, syntax, and programming model across all parts of the application, regardless of where the code is deployed.
Leverages proven, existing platforms (like web browsers and Java VMs) and technologies (like Dojo, ExtJS, Java JPA) by compiling into efficient, lower-level code.
Complements (does not replace) existing technologies and existing infrastructure investments.
Proven technology that is used by hundreds of enterprise customers all over the world.
Extensible compiler and code generation framework that supports adaptation to the unique needs of specific developer communities and changing requirements.
Think of EGL as "modeling in code". See our original project proposal for additional background information.
Magpie is a small dynamically-typed programming language built around patterns, classes, and multimethods. From functional languages, it borrows first-class functions, closures, expressions-for-everything, and quotations. Its most novel feature is probably an extensible syntax. It runs on the JVM.
This is our blog for BBC Radio Labs - a place where we show some of our prototypes for new sites and services. They are all at an early stage of development and some of them might not work quite right, some might look a bit sketchy and they may never be taken any further. They're what we call betas. We'll write about every new beta we release on this blog so please play with them and come back here to let us know what you think. We'll also be writing about other things we're working on, how we do our work and anything else we think you might be interested in.
