Halunke, or: How and why I built a programming language

Lucas Dohmen will tell you the story of why and how he built Halunke. We will first learn about the motivation for building a toy programming language that explores the boundaries between functional and object oriented programming. We will then dive into the language, its features and see a quick demo in the interactive REPL. In the second part of the talk, we will get into the nitty-gritty of Halunke’s Open Source Ruby implementation.
