# e0: Experimental Language #0
`e0` is an experimental language created for the purpose of practicing making a
simple language ecosystem. The language is strongly typed but with only a
limited set of primitives, and compiles down to LLVM IR.
Compilation process
-------------------
```text
e0 source code => llvm bitcode text => clang => link against e0-rt => binary
```
Currently clang is required as there are no plans for custom codegen yet.
Roadmap
-------
In development:
- Structs
- Vim extension
Near future (probably ordered):
- Modules
- Standard library
- e0pkg
- Arrays
- Strings (UTF-8)
Distant future:
- LSP
- Custom codegen backend
