v3.0.0-beta — Early Access

Code Simply.
Ship anything.

A new programming language with native bridges to npm and Python, full file I/O and HTTP, plus its own dedicated IDE — Simply Code.

index.simply
-- Objects, packages, HTTP, and file I/O — all built in
use npm:lodash

define config = { host: "localhost", port: 3000 }

fn greet(name, msg = "Hello") {
    output("{msg}, {name}!")
} end

define resp = fetch("https://api.github.com")
if (resp.ok) {
    writeFile("out.json", resp.text)
} end
Why Simply?
Everything you need to build real things — backends, scripts, automation, bots.
📦

npm & Python packages

Use any npm or Python package you already have installed. One line: use npm:axios.

🎯

Objects & data structures

Full object literals, arrays, JSON parsing & stringifying. Build real applications.

🌐

HTTP built in

Native fetch() — call any API without imports. Returns status, body, headers.

📁

File I/O built in

Read, write, append, list directories. No package bridging needed for filesystem work.

Clean readable syntax

Auto-typed variables, optional strict typing, blocks open with { close with } end.
