The goals are rather ambitious, but the results are starting to show. While platform and ecosystem support is currently very limited, I'm hoping to gather some first impressions and opinions on the design. As well as gauge the level of interest for this kind of language.

Like mentioned in the README, there are some examples and a documentation page to get familiar with the language.

Examples: https://github.com/luminalang/lumina/tree/main/examples

Documentation: https://docs.luminalang.com

Feel free to ask any questions either about the language or implementation here or on the github page.
