## What it is
Noulith is a scripting programming language implemented in Rust, designed for quick-and-dirty scripts with heavy syntax sugar such as everything-is-an-infix-operators, customizable operator precedence, and immutable data structures with copy-on-write semantics. It ships as a CLI with a REPL and can also run in the browser via WebAssembly.

## Use cases
- write quick one-off scripts with concise syntax
- try a programming language in the browser
- solve coding puzzles like Advent of Code with built-in list operations
- experiment with customizable operator precedence
- use a REPL for quick calculations and data munging

## When to choose
- you want a Python-like scripting language with more syntax sugar and immutable collections
- you need a REPL-friendly language for quick calculations or puzzle solving
- you want to run a scripting language in the browser via wasm

## When to avoid
- you need a production language with a stable spec, ecosystem, and libraries
- you require a permissively licensed dependency (the repo has no license)
- you need long-term maintainability or team adoption
