sultan-language/sultanc
An Arabic-first, self-hosting systems language with an English surface, ownership safety and pattern matching. Native ARM64/x86-64, LLVM cross-compilation and WebAssembly. Try it in the browser.
SultanC is a systems programming language whose keywords and identifiers can be written in Arabic or English interchangeably, compiling to native ARM64/x86-64 code and WebAssembly via LLVM. It offers Rust-like ownership checking, algebraic data types with pattern matching, generics, threads, and errors-as-values. The compiler itself is written in SultanC and self-hosts, verified byte-for-byte each build. You can try it in the browser.
Why now: It was featured on Hacker News, likely drawing interest for its Arabic-first design and verified self-hosting compiler.
Who it is for: Systems programmers and language designers, especially Arabic-speaking developers who want a native-code language with Arabic syntax.
