⚡ Now with GPU compute via VecTec

A language built for speed and simplicity

Techlang is a compiled, statically typed language targeting LLVM. Pair it with VecTec for seamless GPU compute — zero boilerplate.

main.tec
// CPU code
!import(std.tec) as std;
!import(arrays.vtec) as gpu;

function main() returns none {
    ArrayOf(float) a = {1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0};
    ArrayOf(float) b = {5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0};

    // runs on your GPU automatically!
    ArrayOf(float) result = gpu.addArrays(a, b);
    std.print(result[0]); // 6.0
}
arrays.vtec
// GPU kernel
kernel addArrays(
    ArrayOf(float) a,
    ArrayOf(float) b
) returns ArrayOf(float) {
    int id = threadId();
    return a[id] + b[id];
}

Why Techlang?

Everything you need, nothing you don't

⚡

Native Performance

Compiles directly to native binaries via LLVM. No interpreter, no VM — just fast machine code.

🎮

GPU Compute via VecTec

Write GPU kernels in VecTec and call them from Techlang. Zero CUDA boilerplate — the compiler handles everything.

🔒

Statically Typed

Catch errors at compile time, not runtime. Strong type system with inference for clean, safe code.

📦

Module System

Split code across files with a clean import system. Functions are automatically namespaced by alias.

🔧

C Interop

Call C functions directly with the extern keyword. Full access to the C standard library and beyond.

✨

Clean Syntax

Familiar C-like syntax with modern features — structs, enums, any type, as casting, and more.
