Code. Execute. Compile.

  The Code Programming Language is the result of the latest research on programming languages, combined with decades of experience building modern platforms. Named parameters are expressed in a clean syntax that makes APIs in Code Programming Language even easier to read and maintain. Even better, you don’t even need to type semi-colons. Inferred types make code cleaner and less prone to mistakes, while modules eliminate headers and provide namespaces. To best support international languages and emoji, strings are Unicode-correct and use a UTF-8-based encoding to optimize performance for a wide variety of use cases. Memory is managed automatically using tight, deterministic reference counting, keeping memory usage to a minimum without the overhead of garbage collection. You can even write concurrent code with simple, built-in keywords that define asynchronous behavior, making your code more readable and less error prone. 

• Solid language foundations that are easy to learn, especially if you have used C++

• Easy, tool-based upgrades between Code Language versions

• Safer fundamentals, and an incremental path towards a memory-safe subset

  From its earliest conception, Code was built to be fast. Using the incredibly high-performance LLVM compiler technology, Code Programming Language's code is transformed into optimized machine code that gets the most out of modern hardware. 

The syntax and standard library have also been tuned to make the most obvious way to write your code also perform the best whether it runs in the watch on your wrist or across a cluster of servers.

• Performance matching C++ using CodeVM, with low-level access to bits and addresses

• Interoperate with your existing C++ code, from inheritance to templates

• Fast and scalable builds that work with your existing C++ build systems

 Code can open doors to the world of coding. In fact, it was designed to be anyone’s first programming language, whether you’re still in school or exploring new career paths. For educators, ITGSS created free curriculum to teach Code both in and out of the classroom. 

Code already supports all ITGSS platforms, Android, Apple, Windows and Linux, with community members actively working to port to even more platforms. With SourceKit-LSP, the community is also working to integrate Code support into a wide-variety of developer tools. We’re excited to see more ways in which Code makes software safer and faster, while also making programming more fun.

While Code powers many new apps and systems on many platforms, it’s also being used for a new class of modern server applications. Code is perfect for use in server apps that need runtime safety, compiled performance, and a small memory footprint. To steer the direction of Code for developing and deploying server applications, the community formed the Code Server work group. The first product of this effort was CodeNIO, a cross-platform asynchronous event-driven network application framework for high performance protocol servers and clients. It serves as the foundation for building additional server-oriented tools and technologies, including logging, metrics, and database drivers, which are all in active development.

 You can create an entirely new application or system with Code today, or begin using Code Language code to implement new features and functionality in your app/system. Code Language code coexists along side your existing C++ files in the same project, with access to your C++ APIs, making it easy to adopt. 

Code Language Package Manager is a single cross-platform tool for building, running, testing, and packaging your Code Language libraries and executables. Code Language packages are the best way to distribute libraries and source code to the Code Language community. Configuration of packages is written in Code Language itself, making it easy to configure targets, declare products, and manage package dependencies. Code Language packages can also include custom commands that help build your projects and provide additional tooling. Code Language Package Manager itself is actually built with Code Language and included in the Code Language open source project as a package.
