# The Odin Programming Language
|
|
|
|
Odin is fast, concise, readable, pragmatic and open sourced. It is designed with the intent of replacing C with the following goals:
|
|
* simplicity
|
|
* high performance
|
|
* built for modern systems
|
|
* joy of programming
|
|
* metaprogramming
|
|
* designed for good programmers
|
|
|

|
## Requirements to build and run
|
|
|
|
* Windows
|
|
* x86-64
|
|
* MSVC 2015 installed (C99 support)
|
|
* Requires MSVC's link.exe as the linker
|
|
- run `vcvarsall.bat` to setup the path
|
|
|
|
## Warnings
|
|
|
|
* This is still highly in development and the language's design is quite volatile.
|
|
* Syntax is definitely not fixed
|
|
|
|
## Roadmap
|
|
|
|
Not in any particular order
|
|
|
|
* Custom backend to replace LLVM
|
|
- Improve SSA design to accommodate for lowering to a "bytecode"
|
|
- SSA optimizations
|
|
- COFF generation
|
|
- linker
|
|
* Type safe "macros"
|
|
* Documentation generator for "Entities"
|
|
* Multiple architecture support
|
|
* Inline assembly
|
|
* Linking options
|
|
- Executable
|
|
- Static/Dynamic Library
|
|
* Debug information
|
|
- pdb format too
|
|
* Command line tooling
|
|
* Compiler internals:
|
|
- Big numbers library
|
