Fluid Programming Language

⚠⚠⚠ Fluid is in a very early stage of developement and should not be used for production use. ⚠⚠⚠

Welcome to Fluid

Fluid is a new fast, open source, statically typed programming language with modern syntax without sacrificing performance, that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.

What does Fluid code look like?

function main(argc: number, argv: string[]) -> number {
    print("Hello, World!");
    
    return 0;
}
