🌟 Tamizhi (தமிழி)

A Native Compiled Programming Language with Tamil Syntax

License: MIT Platform Backend Community Version

Write code in Tamil. Compile to native machine code. Run at C speed.


📖 About

Tamizhi is a compiled programming language that combines the elegance of the Tamil language with the raw performance of native machine code. Unlike interpreted languages, Tamizhi compiles directly to binary via an LLVM backend — delivering performance comparable to C, while letting developers write logic in Tamil syntax.

தமிழிலேயே கோட் எழுதி, மெஷின் ஸ்பீட்-ல இயக்கு.


✨ Features

Feature Description
🔥 LLVM Backend Optimized native code generation for modern CPUs
C-Level Performance Significantly faster than Python and other interpreted languages
🛠️ Native CLI Dedicated tamizhi command-line tool written in C
🌐 Tamil Syntax Write logic using Tamil keywords (அச்சிடு, Num, etc.)
🐧 Linux Native Optimized for Linux (Arch/Manjaro) and Android (Termux)

🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

Ensure the following compiler tools are installed on your system:

  • Arch Linux / Manjaro: sudo pacman -S clang llvm make
  • Ubuntu / Debian: sudo apt install clang llvm make -y
  • Android Termux: pkg install clang llvm make

Installation (The Global Automated Way)

You can install the Tamizhi Compiler globally on your system with a single command. It will automatically download, compile, and configure the global environment.

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Prabakaran202/Tamizhi/main/install.sh | bash

Alternatively, for local development:

git clone https://github.com/Prabakaran202/Tamizhi.git
cd Tamizhi
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh

👨‍💻 Your First Tamizhi Program

Create a new file with .tz extension (e.g., vanakkam.tz):

fun main {
    Num அ = 100 ;
    Num ஆ = 200 ;
    Num இ = அ + ஆ ;

    print "கூட்டல் விடை:" ;
    print இ ;
}

Run it anywhere on your system:

tamizhi run vanakkam.tz

Output:

கூட்டல் விடை:
300

🗺️ Roadmap

  • LLVM Integration (Core Compiler Engine)
  • Native C CLI (tamizhi run)
  • Global Universal Installer Script (install.sh)
  • Precedence Engine Matrix (AST Tree Walker)
  • Conditions — if / else Block Parsing
  • Loops — for Iteration Engines
  • Conditionals — எனின்தான் / இல்லையெனில் (Tamil Syntax Mapping)
  • Return Infrastructure (return values from functions)
  • Floating Point Support (Float / Decimal operations)
  • Tamizhi Package Manager (TPM)
