InsaneLang

InsaneLang is a next-generation systems programming language that aims to be C++ on steroids. It is designed to deliver ultra performance, safety, and expressiveness without the historical baggage of older systems languages.

Vision

• Performance: Equal to or faster than C++ and Rust.
• Safety: No undefined behavior by default; memory safety is guaranteed unless you explicitly opt into unsafe blocks.
• Power: Direct access to hardware and the operating system is available when you need it.
• Metaprogramming: Built‑in reflection, macros, and compile‑time evaluation without template headaches.
• Concurrency: Native async/await and an actor model with zero‑cost abstractions.
• Memory Models: Choose stack, heap, GPU, or other memory regions with simple annotations.
• Modules: No header files or include hell; proper modules with explicit imports.
• Inline Assembly: Write inline assembly with type safety.
• AI Optimizer: An optional AI module can optimize your code during compilation for your specific target platform.
• Testing & Debugging: Unit testing, fuzzing, and symbolic execution are integrated into the language and compiler.

Compiler Architecture

The InsaneLang compiler is built in a modular fashion using C++:

1. Lexer – Converts the raw source code into a sequence of tokens.
2. Parser – Transforms tokens into an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST).
3. Semantic Analyzer – Performs type checking and resolves identifiers.
4. Code Generator – Emits LLVM IR or native code.
5. Optimizer – Applies traditional optimizations and optional AI‑assisted passes.

The current code in this repository contains a simple skeleton for the lexer, parser, and a driver program. It serves as a starting point for building a full InsaneLang compiler.

Building

You can build the skeleton compiler with CMake:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build .

This will produce an insanelang executable.

Using the Skeleton Compiler

The current compiler doesn't implement a full language yet. It tokenizes the input file and reports the number of tokens to demonstrate the basic infrastructure. You can run it like this:

./insanelang path/to/source.isn
