Almide Playground

Online playground for the Almide programming language. Write .almd code and run it directly in your browser — no installation required.

How it Works

.almd source → Almide compiler (Wasm) → TypeScript → JS eval in browser

1. The Almide compiler (written in Rust) is compiled to WebAssembly
2. Your .almd code is compiled to TypeScript in the browser
3. Type annotations are stripped and the resulting JS is executed via eval

Features

• Instant compilation — No server round-trips, everything runs locally
• Live output — See program output immediately
• Compiled JS view — Inspect the generated code
• AST view — See the parsed abstract syntax tree

Development

# Prerequisites: Rust, wasm-pack
# Install wasm-pack: curl https://rustwasm.github.io/wasm-pack/installer/init.sh -sSf | sh

# Build Wasm
cd crate && wasm-pack build --target web --out-dir ../web/pkg

# Serve locally
cd web && python3 -m http.server 8765
# Open http://localhost:8765

Deployment

Push to main triggers GitHub Actions which builds the Wasm and deploys to GitHub Pages.

Limitations

• Only the TypeScript backend is available (no Rust codegen — can't run rustc in browser)
• File I/O (fs.*) is not available in the browser sandbox
• env.unix_timestamp() uses browser's Date.now()
