## What it is
Eve is an experimental human-first programming language and IDE built around literate programming, where code is embedded in documents and programs are written against an embedded database. This repository hosts the v0.3 alpha preview, which is no longer under active development.

## Use cases
- try an experimental human-first programming language
- explore literate programming with code embedded in documents
- build small programs against an embedded database without boilerplate
- learn alternative approaches to programming language design
- run example Eve programs from the starter repository

## When to choose
- you want to experiment with a novel literate-programming language and IDE
- you are researching human-centric programming language design
- you want to study the Eve v0.3 alpha source or npm package

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready, actively maintained language
- you require long-term support, updates, or a large ecosystem
- you need guaranteed bug fixes or security patches

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: programming-language, database, editor
- domain: programming-languages, developer-tools, databases
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: literate-programming, ide, human-first-programming, datalog, alpha, typescript, nodejs
