Language prototype project

This is the prototype language for the BlueBox prototype project.

This is mainly to get an environment up and running. This means no fancy features, no tests, no optimizations, etc.

Design notes:

  • Bytecode VM is stack-based with indexing
  • Garbage collection is done using reference counting
  • Stack is shifted on function call
  • Empty function arguments are re-used for return values
  • Callee cleans up unused stack space when returning
