Over the last month I've done an insane amount of work, and the compiler has matured enough I can safely start expanding the standard library. As of today we now have a minimal crypto library with SHA256, AES-128 (FIPS 197 compliant!), and MD5 to start.

There are plenty of working examples to try along with tests.

Note that only x86_64 is supported currently and I'm working to support more architectures, as well as provide better support for Darwin.

If anyone finds the language interesting and would like to help, I could really use testers for different operating systems and architectures so I can add ABI-specific stuff to the standard library to extend support.

tl;dr we now have basic IO (console,file,sockets) and basic cryptography. I built this language in approximately 9 months also.
