I built a programming language at 15 — and it’s already fully usable.

I'm a 15 year old developer and I’ve been working on a programming language called Kern. The goal wasn’t to create something “revolutionary” or overly complex. Instead, I wanted to build something that focuses on: Simplicity Readability Control Learning how programming languages work Kern is still evolving, but it’s already functional and usable. What is Kern? Kern is a lightweight, experimental programming language designed to keep things minimal and clear. It aims to: Reduce unnecessary complexity Make behavior predictable Provide a clean foundation for experimentation It’s especially useful for: Learning language design Building small tools Understanding how interpreters/compilers work Example Here’s a simple example of Kern in action: // import the datatools module datatools = import("datatools") // parse JSON into a usable object j = datatools.json_parse("{\"x\": 1, \"y\": 2}") // convert a table/object into a TOML string t = datatools.toml_stringify({a: 1}) // parse CSV into rows
