Ix: it's time to get this show on the road

Please visit the new Ix site!

It has been a long road, but I'm finally ready to publicly announce Ix: a new programming language.

Ix does not exist yet. It was previously called Synth, and it did not exist then, either. I am starting to design and develop it now.

It will be a new and wonderful language, truly, with kittens in it, and the only way it could possibly fail is if I give up on it. I'm taking measures to prevent that from happening.

Future posts here will explain why I think the world needs another language, what will be different and new and exciting about it, and lots and lots of technical details. If all goes well, I will eventually set up a dedicated site for Ix, and move these posts to a wiki or something.

I welcome readers one and all - anyone who enjoys PLD (programming language design), or programming in general. I sincerely hope to have enough meat in future posts to interest people, even if they never use Ix itself.

Let the coding begin!
