dream-lang

library0.0.1jsnpmunverified

dream-lang (v0.0.1) is a minimal JavaScript transpiler that compiles to JavaScript, described as a language between ClojureScript and CoffeeScript. It is extremely early-stage (v0.0.0 is referenced in the README) and self-compiling. Release cadence is unknown as the project appears abandoned or very experimental. Differentiators include Lisp-like syntax with indentation and parentheses alternatives, support for pattern matching via switch, set! mutation, and regex literals. However, it is not production-ready and lacks tests and core features like macros and infix operators.
