  Description     : Dynamic language and bytecode VM

Janet is a functional and imperative programming language
and bytecode interpreter. It is a lisp-like language, but
lists are replaced by other data structures (arrays, tables
(hash table), struct (immutable hash table), tuples). The
language also supports bridging to native code written in
C, meta-programming with macros, and bytecode assembly.

There is a REPL for trying out the language, as well as the
ability to run script files. This client program is
separate from the core runtime, so Janet can be embedded in
other programs. Try Janet in your browser at
