Rye Language
Rye Language is a high-level, dynamic programming language emphasizing interactive use, backend development, and information processing. It supports various functionalities, runs on multiple platforms, and promotes user-friendly information manipulation with strict design principles.
Read original articleRye Language is a programming language under development, focusing on fluid expressions for interactive use, backend, servers, and information processing. It is high level, dynamic, and based on ideas from Rebol, Factor, Linux shell, and Go. Rye emphasizes interactive use with a console and can be embedded into Go programs. The language supports various functionalities like string manipulation, mathematical operations, SQL queries, and validation dialects. Rye aims to bridge the gap towards user interfaces and emphasizes information flow over state, with functions being the active components. It runs on Linux, Mac OS, web browsers (Wasm), and Docker, with potential for mobile and Windows. The project is open-source on GitHub, welcoming contributions and offering a multiplatform GUI experiment. Rye's design principles include treating everything as an expression, code as data, and enforcing strictness about effects and error handling. The language also introduces a Spreadsheet datatype and focuses on user-friendly vocabulary for information manipulation.

Can’t wait for the “10 yeass of experience in Rye Lang [in 2026]” job posts from clueless recruiters
"Every active component in Rye is a function (if, loop, for, fn, return, extends, context). No keywords, no special forms."
It should make the language much simpler than other languages. The challenge of programming is dealing with copmplexity in code, and if the language takes away much of that complexity it should be a good thing.
Every time I try to read a Ruby line with no (), I have to stop and think.
Not being able to scan code is an anti feature.

Cool because I'd like to think if someone made a Netflix tech drama loosely based around Bell Labs in the early 80's, this would language would appear in that series. A language created by some Nordic computer scientist who angrily shakes his fist at the world because it doesn't get adopted due to it's weird syntax. Of course instead we get Awk.
It doesn't integrate non-Joker Go code as far as I know.
lsp\ "prin"
It has two problems:
- it's unclear why "prin", not "print";
- the usage of backslash looks scary.Subsequent examples are also not good:
bears .column? 'Area |unique
- overloaded syntax of '.' and '?' characters;
- unbalanced quotes;
- unbalanced whitespace around the '|' characters.I still think a non-animated transcript of a terminal session is better.
