About

Carp is a programming language designed to work well for interactive and performance sensitive use cases like games, sound synthesis and visualizations.

The key features of Carp are the following:

  • Automatic and deterministic memory management (no garbage collector or VM)
  • Inferred static types for great speed and reliability
  • Ownership tracking enables a functional programming style while still using mutation of cache-friendly data structures under the hood
  • No hidden performance penalties allocation and copying are explicit
  • Straightforward integration with existing C code
  • Lisp macros, compile time scripting and a helpful REPL

A Very Small Example

(load-and-use SDL)

(defn tick [state]
  (+ state 10))

(defn draw [app rend state]
  (bg rend &(rgb (/ @state 2) (/ @state 3) (/ @state 4))))

(defn main []
  (let [app (SDLApp.create "The Minimalistic Color Generator" 400 300)
        state 0]
    (SDLApp.run-with-callbacks &app SDLApp.quit-on-esc tick draw state)))

For instructions on how to run Carp code, see this document.
