ByteSkript

Opus #11

An experimental language based on Skript (with no pre-eminent DSL dependencies) compiled to JVM bytecode.

Visit the documentation and wiki here.

Get the latest compiler release here.

ByteSkript draws heavily from the original Skript language design, with some minor structural adaptations to strengthen the language grammar, to remove some unnecessary jargon and make the language more reliable. ByteSkript also increases interoperability with existing JVM languages.

ByteSkript is not affiliated with SkriptLang.

ByteSkript is a completely new implementation of the general guide and style of the 'Skript' language, with its own language specification, goals and licence.
