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
• designed for good programmers

• First Talk & Demo
  • Talk
  • Demo
  • Q&A
• Composition & Refactorability
• Introspection, Modules, and Record Layout
• push_allocator & Minimal Dependency Building
• when, for, & procedure overloading

• Windows
• x86-64
• MSVC 2015 installed (C99 support)
• Requires MSVC's link.exe as the linker
  • run vcvarsall.bat to setup the path

• This is still highly in development and the language's design is quite volatile.
• Syntax is not fixed.

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
