Overview

Frost is a general purpose multi-paradigm programming language with support for:

• First-class immutable objects and value types
• First-class functions and closures
• Type inference
• Non-nullable references, static proofs of null safety
• Contracts (preconditions and postconditions)
• Tuples
• "Sane" operator overloading
• Actor model threading

And many other features. Frost is still under development; it is nearly feature complete, but not quite ready for prime time yet.
