Llevron

About:

Llevron is a general purpose compiled programming language that aims for explicitness and accuracy. Using minimal symbols and a consistent syntax across structures, Llevron offers a fresh approach to programming. With a few simple steps, you can start writing programs of your own.

Currently, Llevron is  at a stable point, and anyone can use it, absolutely free. The download is open-source and free to use, and includes documentation on how to write Llevron code. As this project is still in development, any and all feedback is welcome and encouraged.

Recent Update:

1/19/2026

Llevron v1.2.0

This update adds a lot of new functionality to Llevron. This includes additions to the runtime and core.llev.

Here is a brief summary of what's new:

~ Changed Llevron file extension from .ll to .llev to avoid conflicts for LLVM users.

~ Fixed a bug involving the processing of number literals.

~ Fixed a bug in power() that caused inaccurate results with negative exponents.

~ Added an action called lines() to core.llev that breaks a text value up into a text group, delimited at each newline character.

~ Altered the functionality of erase() to allow deletion of folders and their contents via relative paths.
WARNING! This does not allow absolute paths, but relative paths can still escape, so be careful not to wipe your system.

~ Removed llevronQuote and moved quote() from core.llev to the backend runtime.

~ Added a new built-in action called time() that gives back the number of microseconds since the start of the program.

~ Added a new built-in action called dateTime() that always gives the current calendar date and wall time information in text group format.

~ Added a type called Calendar to core.llev that can be used to house all the data from dateTime() in an organized fashion.

~ Added a constant global text value called platform that holds the type of OS Llevron is running on.
~ Linux and Windows are the only officially supported platforms for Llevron.

~ The following actions have been moved from core.llev to the backend runtime. Their use and functionality is unchanged.
~ high(), low(), min(), max()

~ Llevron now supports custom types, which provide OOP functionality.

~ The Installer(setup) and launcher(run) have been re-written in Llevron as part of the self-hosting effort.

System Requirements:

Any PC with a 64-bit processor and at least 1GB of RAM.

Any 64-bit operating system. (The Llevron developers currently use Ubuntu and Windows 11.)

g++ (comes built into most Linux distributions)

Empty space on your hard drive, obviously.

The entire Llevron installation is less than 3MB, so if it doesn't fit, you have bigger problems to address.

Recommended:

A code editor with file explorer and terminal. (The Llevron developers currently use Windsurf and VS Code.)
