The Wyn Programming Language

One language for everything - the official book.

After twenty years of switching between Python, JavaScript, Go, C++, and Bash every day, Andrew Odendaal asked a simple question: why can't one language do everything? This book is the answer, from first install to shipping production binaries.

Every example in this book compiles and runs - verified against Wyn v1.19.
