I'm working on implementing a programming language all my own

1. Jade

   1 48 21,852 2.3 JavaScript

   Pug – robust, elegant, feature rich template engine for Node.js

   

   Fun, nice work. Side comment, but it feels like this would make a nice match with Jade/Pug[0] HTML syntax for a clean front end experience

3. shi

   2 5 13 8.3 Python

   a Simple Hackable Interpreter (by codr7)

   

   Awesome, I've been doing the same thing for the past 15 years. It's one of the most stimulating activities I've found within software.

   I recently sat down and put together the beginnings of a framework to play around with or use as a starting point.

4. Admiran

   3 6 111 9.5 Assembly

   Admiran is a pure, lazy, functional language and self-hosting compiler based upon Miranda

   

   Nice! I like the goals of a "simpler Haskell" for small projects (see [Admiran](https://github.com/taolson/Admiran) ). Some questions that weren't answered in the blog:

   * is the evaluation model call-by-need (lazy, like Haskell) or call-by-value (strict, like most other languages)?

   * how is memory allocation handled? (I assume GC via the underlying JavaScript implementation)?

   * will it be open-sourced at some point?

   * a major benefit of immutable definitions is that they are always initialized; however, the type declaration format potentially opens things up to a use-before-def bug if the type declaration brings the variable name in scope. How is this handled in your implementation?

   Good luck on the continued progress of your project; it can be deeply satisfying!
