Bolt

Bolt is a statically-typed programming language running on the Bolt Virtual Machine (BVM). This langauge takes heavy inspiration from syntax of Golang.

Features

• BVM bytecode execution
• package & import system
• strong typing with inbuilt u/i8-64, f32, f64, bool, string
• extern functions for linking to byteCode implementations

Quick Start

Build:

git clone https://github.com/HrishabhMittal/bvm
./build.sh

Run Example:

./run.sh

Syntax Example

note that running the example below currently required fmt/ folder to be in the compiling directory, and running it requires you to provide the stdlib implementations of print functions dynamically. See run.sh for more details.

package main
import "fmt"

function main() (i32) {
    fmt.printstring("Hello World\n")
    return 0
}
