Glint is a general purpose programming language.
Glint is simple, but never terse.
Glint is not afraid of breaking changes. The “major” portion of semantic versions exist for a reason, and we intend on using them.
Glint is mathematical in nature, extending mathematical concepts for computing use-cases (i.e. types, function parameters and return values, etc).
Glint is capable of low-level operations, including “unsafe” ones: how else would you write a driver for a piece of hardware which requires you to write to a specific address in memory?
Glint is capable of high-level operations, including “functional” ones: how else would you stay sane while writing complex software?
Glint is expressive. If something is possible, Glint should be able to do it (one way or another), without being “ridiculous” to achieve (i.e. looking like Brainfuck).
Glint happens to be fast. Performance of current computer machines is never taken into consideration in design decisions of Glint. Optimising compilers (like LCC) deal with that.
Glint is “compatible” with leading, industry-standard languages and tooling.
