The Jule Programming Language
An effective programming language to build efficient, fast, reliable and safe software while maintaining simplicity.
This repository is the main source tree of Jule. \
It contains the reference compiler, API, and the standard library.

### Key Features
- Optimized for fast and safe programs
- Empowered compile-time: reflection, evaluation, matching, and more
- Deterministic memory management with reference-counting and smart pointers
- Default immutability, boundary checking, no uninitialized memory, variable shadowing disabled
- Built-in testing framework
- Easy low-level development
- [Easy cross compilation](https://manual.jule.dev/compiler/cross-compilation): standard library support, target platform IR generation and architecture imitation
- Easy error-handling with [exceptionals](https://manual.jule.dev/error-handling/exceptionals), much like optional types
- [Concurrency support](https://manual.jule.dev/concurrency): managed threads, channels, mutexes, condition variables, and more
- High [interoperability](https://manual.jule.dev/integrated-jule/interoperability) with C, C++, Objective-C and Objective-C++
- C++ [API](https://manual.jule.dev/api) for extending Jule with interoperability
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Jule does not have a stable version yet and is still becoming more stable with each commit.
> Some commits may not be fully honored due to some compiler/API errors.

## Build from Source
If you want to get Jule from the source, there are many ways to do so.
Jule has a bootstrapped compiler, so you'll need to have a working one first.
There are two options to do this: obtain a binary from the [releases](https://github.com/julelang/jule/releases) or use the [official IR](https://github.com/julelang/julec-ir).
However, it is recommended to use IR as it is always up to date and ensures [master](https://github.com/julelang/jule/tree/master) branch compatibility.
If you already have a compiler, you can use build scripts designed for developers to compile JuleC.
Remember, these are meant for developers, not for production use. They compile the compiler for debugging new source code.
