Designing the StelLang Standard Library
· One min read
By Mahesh
The standard library is the heart of any language. Here’s how I designed and implemented StelLang’s stdlib.
Goals
- Simplicity: Easy to use and understand
- Power: Covers common programming needs
- Extensibility: Easy to add new modules
Key Modules
- math: Mathematical operations
- output: Printing and formatting
- rand: Random number generation
- ascii: ASCII utilities
- alloc: Memory management
Implementation
- Written in Rust for performance
- Exposed to StelLang via built-in modules
Future Plans
- Add more modules for web, data, and networking
- Improve documentation and examples
The stdlib is always growing. Your feedback helps make it better for everyone!
