Top 23 C programming-language Projects

  • Lua

    Lua is a powerful, efficient, lightweight, embeddable scripting language. It supports procedural programming, object-oriented programming, functional programming, data-driven programming, and data description.

    • Project mention: 5-Step Approach: ProjectSveltos Event Framework for Kubernetes Deployment with Cilium Gateway API | dev.to | 2024-02-19

    The EventSource uses the Lua language to search for any services with ports set to 80 or 443 in the ‘argocd’ namespace. More examples can be found here.

  • ponyc

    Pony is an open-source, actor-model, capabilities-secure, high performance programming language

    • Project mention: Old Version | /r/PHPhelp | 2023-12-11

  • emojicode

    😀😜🔂 World’s only programming language that’s bursting with emojis

  • checkedc

    Checked C is an extension to C that lets programmers write C code that is guaranteed by the compiler to be type-safe. The goal is to let people easily make their existing C code type-safe and eliminate entire classes of errors. Checked C does not address use-after-free errors. This repo has a wiki for Checked C, sample code, the specification, and test code.

  • CreepyCodeCollection

    A Nonsense Collection of Disgusting Codes

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • pocketlang

    A lightweight, fast embeddable scripting language.

  • core

    MetaCall: The ultimate polyglot programming experience. (by metacall)

    • Project mention: Show HN: Pip Imports in Deno | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-08-11

    An alternative is metacall. The example in the readme is about calling Python from Javascript, but it also works with other languages, like Ruby, C#, Java, and other languages

    In the future, maybe webidl (or extensions of it) will bring interoperability between languages too. At the moment there is https://mozilla.github.io/uniffi-rs/ for interoperability between Rust and a number of languages (basically the ones mozilla needs: Swift, Kotlin, Javascript)

  • ngs

    Next Generation Shell (NGS)

    • Project mention: Next Generation Shell – a modern programming language for DevOps | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-01

  • ring

  • ravi

    Ravi is a dialect of Lua, featuring limited optional static typing, JIT and AOT compilers

    • Project mention: Ravi is a dialect of Lua, with JIT and AOT compilers | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-18

  • umka-lang

    Umka: a statically typed embeddable scripting language

    • Project mention: VDrift: Cross-Platform Driving Simulation | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-28

  • daScript

    daScript - high-performance statically strong typed scripting language

    • Project mention: DaScript: Fast and Versatile Scripting Language | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-27

  • felix

    The Felix Programming Language (by felix-lang)

    • Project mention: Felix: Statically typed, performant scripting language with native C++ embedding | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-28

  • metalang99

    Full-blown preprocessor metaprogramming

    • Project mention: How to convert an enum to string in C++ | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-30

    There are also other approaches. Macro variants making use of `__VA_ARGS__` would be probably the best trade-off. If you want a slightly more ergonomic syntax, something like Metalang99 [1] will help (and the author even wrote a post about this exact subject [2]). Codegen is another option which may work better than other options depending on the situation and exact implementation strategy. And there is always the Reflection TS [3], which may or may not be incorporated to C++26...

    🍀 The Nature Programming Language, may you be able to experience the joy of programming.

    • Project mention: Nature: Programming language to experience the joy of programming | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-13

    The primary channel for communication right now is https://github.com/nature-lang/nature , where you can engage and keep up-to-date through issues, discussions, and watching the repository.

    Additionally, this is my first time hearing about the Mastodon platform, it looks really cool.

    Here's a link to the language itself. Hasn't been updated in a couple years, unfortunately. Maybe getting some attention here could help.
