# The Odin Programming Language
The Odin programming language is fast, concise, readable, pragmatic and open sourced. It is designed with the intent of replacing C with the following goals:
* simplicity
* high performance
* built for modern systems
* joy of programming
* metaprogramming

## Demonstrations:
* First Talk & Demo
- [Talk](https://youtu.be/TMCkT-uASaE?t=338)
- [Demo](https://youtu.be/TMCkT-uASaE?t=1800)
- [Q&A](https://youtu.be/TMCkT-uASaE?t=5749)
* [Composition & Refactorability](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1wemZfcbXM)
* [Introspection, Modules, and Record Layout](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFq8rhWhx4s)
* [push_allocator & Minimal Dependency Building](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_LGVOAMb78)
* [when, for & procedure overloading](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzeOekzyZK8)
* [Context Types, Unexported Entities, Labelled Branches](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkHVwT1Qk-g)
* [Bit Fields, i128 & u128, Syntax Changes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlTutcLyF64)
## Requirements to build and run
- Windows
* x86-64
* MSVC 2015 installed (C++11 support)
* [LLVM binaries](https://github.com/gingerBill/Odin/releases/tag/llvm-4.0-windows) for `opt.exe` and `llc.exe`
* Requires MSVC's link.exe as the linker
* run `vcvarsall.bat` to setup the path
- MacOS
* x86-64
* LLVM explicitly installed (`brew install llvm`)
* XCode installed (for the linker)
- GNU/Linux
* x86-64
* Build tools (ld)
* LLVM installed
* Clang installed (temporary - this is Calling the linker for now)
## Warnings
* This is still highly in development and the language's design is quite volatile.
* Syntax is not fixed.
## Roadmap
Not in any particular order and not be implemented
* Compile Time Execution (CTE)
- More metaprogramming madness
- Compiler as a library
- AST inspection and modification
* CTE-based build system
* Replace LLVM backend with my own custom backend
* Improve SSA design to accommodate for lowering to a "bytecode"
* SSA optimizations
* Documentation Generator for "Entities"
* Multiple Architecture support
* Debug Information
- pdb format too
* Command Line Tooling
* Compiler Internals:
- Big numbers library
- Multithreading for performance increase
