## Key-Features
*Planned/Intended features (Development is still ongoing)*
- Ability to streamline calling processes and handling arguments and return
data.
- Multi-Threaded processing, which allows extensions / other programs to be run
inside each thread.
- Ability to manage exceptions and also define fallbacks. This is also
supported for extensions that fail.
- Extended Base-Library (Para Base Library) with additional types and
functions.
- Decorator and Overload Functions.
- Simplified syntax and handling of C components for easier coding.
- Provide more Security by forbidding variable shadowing and removing undefined
behaviour.
## Introduction
Para (From Greek "para": Beside/Alongside) is a programming language that
is designed to integrate other languages and allow for advanced management of
embedded programs / code-bases inside a program, where the language will serve
as a base for writing overhead and "connector" programs, which can manage
instances, listen for events, stop and start processes and manage in- and
out-data.

## Docs
Our documentation can be found [here](https://para.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).
## Python Module
[](https://badge.fury.io/py/paralang-base)
Besides, the option to compile the python code into a binary executable using
pyinstaller, you may also directly utilise the `paralang_source` source module, which
provides the compiler source code that can be run in other python scripts.
For reference on the pypi module please go to the documentation page
[here](https://para.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pyapi_ref/index.html).
## Installation
For reference on the installation please go the documentation page
