This repository is the main source tree of the Jule.
It contains the reference compiler, API, and standard library.
Jule does not have a stable version yet and is still being developed to become more stable. Some commits may not be fully honored due to some compiler/API errors. Please report it with the Jule Issue Tracker if you come across something like this. You can also join the Discord community to discuss, helping, and ask more questions about Jule with the community.
- Optimized for fast and safe programs
- Empowered compile-time: evalutation of constants, zero runtime-cost generics
- Hands-free deterministic memory management with reference-counting, manual management is optional
- Easy cross compilation, generate IR for target platform and imitate target architecture
- Cross platform implemented standard library
- Built-in support to write tests
- Built-in support for concurrent programming, empowered by standard library
- Easy error-handling with exceptionals, very like optional types
- Easy low-level programming
- High interoperability with C, C++, Objective-C and Objective-C++
- Disable variable shadowing by default, immutability by default, boundary checking, no uninitialized memory
- The API written in C++ and allows extend Jule thanks to interoperability

If you want to get Jule from the source, there are many ways to do so. Jule has a bootstrapped compiler, so you'll need to get one first if you don't have one. There are two options to do this: obtain the release or use IR. However, it is recommended to use IR as it is always more up to date and ensures there is enough left to compile the master branch. Officially, the recommended method to always get the most up-to-date build of compiler from the latest source code is to use IR.
If you already have a compiler, you can use build scripts designed for developers by obtaining the latest source code. But remember, these are for developers and they compile the compiler for debugging new source code, not for production use. So you can get an inefficient and slow version.
