Cantonese is a programming language whose keywords are written in Cantonese (Chinese), implemented with a Rust compiler and distributed via pip. It interoperates with Python, supports macros, optional LLVM static compilation, and includes examples from Hello World to machine learning and turtle graphics.
Use cases
- write programs using cantonese keywords
- learn programming in cantonese
- write python extension libraries in cantonese
- compile cantonese code to native binaries with llvm
- define custom syntax with macros
- run cantonese scripts from the command line
When to choose
- you speak cantonese and want a fun or educational way to code
- you want to interoperate with python while writing in cantonese
- you want to experiment with a novel non-english programming language
When to avoid
- you need a production-grade language with mature tooling and ecosystem
- you or your team do not read cantonese characters
- you need long-term maintainability or broad community support
