Getting Started

Introduction & Overview

AniKode is a dual-target, developer-first programming language designed to unite the expressive simplicity of dynamic scripting with native C++20 machine speed, mathematical propositional logic, and glitch-proof control flow.

Core Language Architecture

AniKode features a modular Lexer, Recursive Descent AST Parser, and twin execution targets (JavaScript V8 VM & C++20 Native).

Dual Engine: Run instantaneously in the browser / JS VM, or compile to native C++20 machine binaries with 0.003s startup.
Propositional Logic: Native operators (implies, iff, xor, nand, nor, xnor, all, any) treat boolean algebra as first-class citizens.
Deterministic Loops: Range loops (loop i from 1 to N) compute bounds at invocation, preventing infinite lockups.
AST Disabler: #N# annotations cleanly disable the next N AST statements without syntax corruption.

Why AniKode Was Created

Traditional scripting languages often sacrifice raw performance and lack native tools for formal logic, while low-level systems languages require heavy boilerplate for simple scripts. AniKode bridges this gap by providing an intuitive syntax that compiles directly to optimized C++20 machine code or runs instantly in a lightweight sandbox.

fn verifyAccess(isAdmin, is2FA, score) {
    return (isAdmin implies is2FA) and (score >= 50)
}

let userAllowed = verifyAccess(true, true, 85)
say.out("Access Granted:", userAllowed)  ~ Output: true ~
