Jupiter Compiler and Runtime

=====

What is Jupiter?

-----

Jupiter is an multi-purpose, experimental language I've been building.

It uses a unique variation on the Hindley-Milner type inference system, with full support for overloaded methods.

The compiler targets the LLVM IR, for maximum speed and portability.  

Primary Aims

-----

* Simple yet powerful syntax and features for easy and rapid development

* Full type safety without verbose type annotations

* Expressivity through rich operator overloading

* Fast performance

Requirements

-----

Required to build and use the Jupiter compiler:

* Unix-like environment (Unix or Cygwin)

* Clang (currently being developed with `clang++` version 3.4.2)

* LLVM toolchain (`llc` version 3.4.2)

How to Build Jupiter

-----

`make jup` builds the Jupiter to LLVM IR compiler

`make jupc` builds the toolchain for automating the build process

`make runtime` builds the runtime library

`make tests` builds Jupiter programs location in `examples/`

Running `make all` will build all of the above.
