Sloplang

Sloplang is a small functional programming language I vibecoded in order to express my vision for a small language built to tackle Advent of Code-esque coding problems. It runs via a Rust-powered interpreter, and is meant to be sugary as hell with its syntax to allow for concise solutions that aren't just correct, but feel right.

print "Hello, World!"

-- Try piping some data:
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
	| map ? * ?
	| where ? > 5
	| print

Language Highlights

• Pipeline operator | for chaining operations
• Implicit lambdas with ? placeholder syntax
• First-class functions, closures, and currying
• Pattern matching with cond-style match
• Strings that work as lists — reverse, where, map all work on strings
• First-class 2D grids with built-in flood_fill and bfs
• Cartesian products with * for brute-force search
