Sigma is a compiled, statically typed, C-like, data oriented language with a focus on performance and low-level optimization using GPU acceleration via kernels. Sigma is currently under heavy development and isn't ready for stable use.
[!IMPORTANT]
I've taken a break from developing Sigma for the time being, but the project isn't dead and will be worked on eventually, in some shape or form. I'm currently trying to focus on the development of my minimalistic backend and x86/64 assembler, which will later be used as the main backend for this project.
Getting up and running
Get started by running:
# Download Sigma's source code
$ git clone https://github.com/Goubermouche/sigma.git --recursive
$ cd sigma
# Generate project files
$ premake5 vs2022After downloading and building the project you can compile a .s file [WIP]:
# Compile main.s as a Sigma source file
$ sigma compile main.sProject status

- TODO:
- Project cleanup
- Better object file emitter (Windows)
- First PTX tests
- Future:
- Unified package manager
- Official GPU support via kernels
Contributing
Contributions, either to the compiler implementation, or related to language design are greatly appreciated and welcome.
- Contribute to the compiler implementation: Bug reports, optimizations, new features.
- Contribute to the language design: Feedback on the language design, new feature request, interesting ideas.
Tooling
Sigma strives to be a fully functional enviroment, for this purpose we're developing several tools which aim to ease entry cost and improve the developer experience. As more tools become available they will be added to the list bellow:
- Syntax highlighting (Also available on the VS Code marketplace)
