Peregrine is a compiled programming language currently under development. Docs coming soon.
I am creating it as a fast alternative to Python and an easy one to C.
- Ease of use
- Fast
- Highly modular
- Occupies less memory
- Compiled
You can consider it to be a superset of C which compiles to clean C. So valid c code is also valid Peregrine code (the language is named Peregrine). It will have no garbage collector because it is a system programming language but it will be very easy to use so there will be less chance of memory leak.
- Clone this repository using the following command ->
git clone https://github.com/Peregrine-lang/Peregrine.git
- Run
cd Peregrine/Peregrine
- To build it run
v peregrine.v
- That's it
It is written in V
Currently we are working on the codegen and some Peregrine programs are working :)
Here is a small example for you to understand:
def main():
print("Hello, World!")
The main
function is the entry point for the program.
Cool, you can contact me via mail.

The project has automatic tests which will run on any pull reuest and push to the project.
Tests which require user input wont run but they will still be compiled.
If you add new functionality to the project please create a test for it.
This is the case because tests which require user input will only be compiled and can only be checked for syntax errors not issues with the functionality of the given test subject.
