This repository is no longer being developed. The ARF language has since gone through several revisions and has been given a different name (FSPL), and the new version can be foundhere.

README of this repository:

The ARF programming language.

This is still under development and does not compile things yet. Once complete,it will serve as a temporary compiler that will be used to write a new one usingthe language itself.

The old repository can be foundhere.

ARF is a low level language with a focus on organization, modularization, andcode clarity. Behind it's avant-garde syntax, its basically just a more refinedversion of C.

A directory of ARF files is called a module, and modules will compile to objectfiles (one per module) using C as an intermediate language (maybe LLVM IR in thefuture).
