🥛 MILCH: [M]y functional language [I]nspired by [L]isp, [C]lojure, and [H]askell

Summary

MILCH (or Milch, or milch) is a interpreted, dynamically typed functional programming language that has some Lisp-inspired syntax and Haskell-inspired semantics. Milch is German for 🥛.

I'm developing this language by myself as a hobby, and the spec is going to change all the time. Some features documented here might not yet be implemented.

Building

Install a Haskell toolchain with Stack and GHC. To build and install the milch binary in your PATH, run:

stack install

To see the help text, run:

milch -h

Tests

To run the test suite, run:

stack test

For development, I find it very useful to run milch commands in one terminal window and this command in another:

stack install --test --file-watch
