Strata brings together the power of compiled languages with the simplicity of modern scripting.
Strata combines the best features of modern programming languages
Compiled directly to C for maximum speed.
Catch errors at compile time, not runtime.
Simple, expressive syntax that feels natural.
Compile to C, JavaScript, or bytecode.
Fast compilation and helpful error messages.
Write once, run everywhere.
// Define a function
func fibonacci(n: int) => int {
if (n <= 1) {
return n
}
var prev: int = 0
var curr: int = 1
for (var i: int = 2; i <= n; var i: int = i + 1) {
let next: int = prev + curr
var prev: int = curr
var curr: int = next
}
return curr
}
let result: int = fibonacci(10)
import io from str
io.print(result) Every variable has an explicit type. Catch errors at compile time.
Clean, readable code that's easy to understand and maintain.
Standard library with I/O, math, text, and utility functions.
Built to be faster and safer than alternatives
