nepaliko.js

This is the fun programming language. Do Programming in Nepali Language, kind of Nepangrezi.

Installation

1. First, make sure you have Node.js installed. If not, install it from nodejs.org

2. Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/nepaliko.js.git
cd nepaliko.js

3. Install dependencies:

npm install

4. Make the CLI executable:

chmod +x src/cli.js

5. Create a global link to the nepaliko command:

sudo ln -s "$(pwd)/src/cli.js" /usr/local/bin/nepaliko

Usage

Create a new file (example.nepaliko)

This is the example where namaste is the entrypoint for the program and program must end with dhanyabad. Anything outside of it will be ignored.

Language Features

Variables

Variables can be declared using yo keyword:

Types

• Numbers: yo a = 2;
• Strings: yo b = "Hello"; or yo c = 'World';
• Boolean: yo d = thik; (true) or yo e = bethik; (false)
• Null: yo f = khali;

Conditions

Use yadi for if statements and nabhaye for else:

Loops

Use jaba samma for while loops:

How It Works

The nepaliko.js interpreter works in several stages:

1. Lexical Analysis (Tokenizer)

   • Converts source code into tokens
   • Recognizes keywords like namaste, dhanyabad, yo, bhana, etc.
   • Handles operators, identifiers, and literals

2. Parsing (Parser)

   • Converts tokens into an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST)
   • Validates syntax and structure
   • Creates nodes for different program elements (variables, conditions, loops)

3. Interpretation (Interpreter)

   • Walks through the AST
   • Converts nepaliko syntax to JavaScript
   • Handles variable scoping and operations

4. Execution

   • The generated JavaScript is executed using Node.js
   • Results are displayed in the console

Example Translation
