darklang/dark

Darklang is a full-stack development platform that provides a custom language, a modular backend runtime, and a comprehensive CLI and IDE tooling. The system enables users to write and execute scripts, manage packages and source control, and interact with external services like HTTP, databases, and AI models. It features a structured capability model for security, a new recursive-descent parser, and extensive tooling including an LSP server and VS Code extension.

This period focused on establishing the foundational infrastructure for the Darklang CLI and VS Code extension. The backend was upgraded to .NET 10 and restructured into modular components, while a new hand-written parser and capability system improved code quality and security. Significant effort was also dedicated to implementing the Language Server Protocol (LSP) to enable robust editor integration and tooling.
