This is my own programming language called fluffy(similar to python)

Fluffy 🐰

This is my own interpreter programming called Fluffy.

UPDATE!!!!

Fluffy v2 is broken like so broken I can't fix it. So I'm just going to jump to next plan in line which is to rewrite the whole thing in C. Let's goooooo.

Background

Fluffy was inspired by the language 'Chicken' which is an esoteric programming language. I wanted Fluffy to be just like chicken except its tokens are different varient of the word Fluffy(e.g Fluffy, fluffY, FLuffy). But at the moment, it would be like a regular programming language with variable names, functions, and so on.

Code Sample

Installation

Mac & Linux

1. Clone this repo into ~/Users/mac/Library using git clone https://github.com/emmaunel/Fluffy.git.
2. Once installed go inside Fluffy folder -> cd Fluffy in your terminal.
3. Run setup.py script -> python3 setup.py
4. Done. You can run Fluffy code by using the following command fluffy fileName.f.

Roadmap

• Front-end

  • Create Lexical analyzer.
    • Research(possibly gonna write in python)
    • Add commands like clear and exit(to exit the interpreter)
    • Interesting thing, the tokens can be put into a tree(Glad I paid attention in CS141, add to documentation)
  • Create Parser
    • Convert the tokens from a lexer into a tree and decide what each identifier is.

• Backend

  • Code generation Current
  • Optimisation
  • Strong typing

• Extra

  • Write all documentations in detail 25%
  • Use v1 as the interpreter
  • v3 would be all the word fluffy
