Language design / Runtime
Elf
A small, C-like scripting language designed around a compact implementation, direct syntax, and fast iteration.
01 / Overview
Elf is a compact scripting language with familiar C-like syntax. It is an ongoing exploration of how small a useful language and runtime can remain while still supporting practical embedded tooling.
02 / What it does
- 01
Uses a direct C-like syntax designed to remain easy to read and modify.
- 02
Keeps the implementation and runtime intentionally small.
- 03
Serves as the programmable build-script language used by Bob.
03 / Engineering
Elf is designed alongside the programs embedding it. That feedback loop keeps language features grounded in actual tooling needs instead of growing from an abstract language specification alone.
