Instead, Enact aims to be familiar, taking advantage of already established techniques and paradigms and making them <strong>nicer</strong>. </p>

Example

// FizzBuzz in Enact

func fizzBuzz(n int) {
    for i in 1...n {
        switch (i % 3 == 0, i % 5 == 0) {
            case (true, false) => print("Fizz");
            case (false, true) => print("Buzz");
            case (true, true)  => print("FizzBuzz");
            default            => print(n);
        }
    }
}

Features

• Static types that help, not hinder
• Efficient compile-time memory management
• Easy-to-use generics, hygienic macros
• Pattern matching and tail-calls
• Clean and familiar syntax
• Built-in build system and package management

Goals

• Easy to pick up from other compiled languages like C, C++, Rust and Go
• More memory-safe than C, more approachable than Rust, more peformant than Go
• Small standard library with a strong ecosystem of external packages
