If you want to contribute, please read the contributing guide.
IMPORTANT: Shard requires GCC to compile
shardc -h # Display a help message
shardc -c example.shd # Compile a Shard file into a C file
shardc -o example.shd # Compile a Shard file into an object file
shardc -x example.shd # Compile a Shard file into an executable file
You can try to compile and run the program below:
# My first Shard program
dword x = 0;
const dword y = 79;
# Same than while x < y
#
# ; is not required after the last statement of a code block or a program
until x == y
{
x += 1
}
