Cafe

Effectively, First Prototype Based Programming Language on JVM.

Why Cafe?

Features

Simple & easy to use

Cafe is dynamically typed and has simple syntax

var i= 10;
cmd.println(i);

Class Free

Cafe has only one construct: Object!

var obj = {};
cmd.print(obj);

Behavior Delegation

Cafe Object chains to delegate properties

var parent= {age:45};
var child = Object.delegate(parent);
child.age = 18;
cmd.println(child.age);

Modular

Cafe supports Modular Programming

import a from "./cafe_file";
a();

#cafe_file.cafe
export func a(){
    cmd.println("I’m in cafe_file");
}

Functional

Supports HoF, Closure & Anonymous function

func a(b){
    b();
}
a(func() {
cmd.print("Hey, there!");
});

Flexible DS

Dynamic Lists to store any type of Objects

var list = [10, 20, 30];
list[0:1] = [20];
var sub = list[1:2];
list.add();
list.remove();
cmd.print(sub);
