StelLang Keywords

By Mahesh

Here’s a quick reference to the essential keywords in StelLang, with modern examples and explanations.

pub

Marks a function as public (importable):

pub def greet() {
    print("Hello!")
}

Imports a module or file:

import greet from "./greet.stel"
greet()

Defines a function:

def add(a, b) {
    return a + b
}

Declares a variable:

let x = 10

Conditional logic:

let x = true
if x {
    print("True!")
} else {
    print("False!")
}

Add documentation to functions:

def foo() {
    """
    This is a docstring!
    """
    print("Hello!")
}

Modify or extend function behavior:

def log() {
    print("Logging!")
}

@log
def run() {
    print("Running!")
}
