Noviq

Noviq- The name Noviq is make up of two words: Nova(which means new) and unique.

• So, Nova + unique = Noviq.

Noviq = Nova (new) + unique- Noviq is just a simple interpreted programming language writtin in Rust which aims to be independent in the future, i.e, being writtin in Noviq itself similar to how rust does it.

A simple, interpreted programming language written in Rust with a focus on clarity and ease of use. A language written to have an easy syntax and high performance.

Noviq aims to be a compiled language instead of an interpreted language in the future.

Builder tool for interpreter version is called: Photon or Photon-NVQ The compiler will be called: Singularity or Singularity-NVQ

First release of Noviq is expected to be Nebula-1.0.0 (Pre-alpha).

Implementation:

See features.md or PRIORITIES.md

Building

Using Photon (Recommended)

Photon is the official build tool for Noviq, providing a unified cross-platform build experience:

# Build Photon first
cd photon
cargo build --release

# Use Photon to build Noviq
./target/release/photon build              # Debug build
./target/release/photon build release      # Release build
./target/release/photon build snapshot     # Snapshot build with git hash

# Install binaries to libs/
./target/release/photon install

# Clean build artifacts
./target/release/photon clean

See photon/README.md for more details.

Using Build Scripts (Legacy)

./build.sh              # Debug build
./build.sh --release    # Release build
./build.sh --snapshot   # Optimized snapshot build

Windows: Use build.ps1 or build.bat instead. Binaries are output to libs/ folder.
