Copper is an experimental programming language that I use as a replacement to C and C++.

Features

• Statically typed.
• 4 backends: x86 COFF, x86 ELF, x64 ELF and LLVM.
• Simple syntax.
• Basic type inference.
• Type inheritance.
• Out of order definitions.
• Genericity.
• Block closures for iterators.
• New data types can be created.
• Everything is explicit (no implicit type conversion, no exception, no destructor).
• Simple import system, no need of headers.
• Really fast (with non-LLVM backend).
• Not everything in the global namespace.

If you want to see what it looks like, go to the overview page. For more complete information, you can have a look at the documentation.

I’m releasing it because Code Browser is developed with it: you need it to compile Code Browser from source or if you want to modify it. I don’t provide any tutorials, examples or standard library (you can get the one from Code Browser) but you can contact me if you have any questions.
