Project status
Elseon — "son of elsewhere" — is a systems programming language for the Linux kernel and embedded systems. PFE (Proudly Found Elsewhere): C headers are first-class semantic modules. NIH inverted: we do not believe in "Not Invented Here"; we believe in "Found Elsewhere and Made Better".
Kernel-ready: no garbage collection, no hidden allocations, no hidden control flow, deterministic memory layout. Formally close to C and JavaScript for minimal cognitive friction; LLVM backend for code generation; simple, but incorporating the lessons of object-oriented languages since the 1980s.
Status
- Status: active.
- What's working: the project scaffold — language design document, feature requirements, phases, and site build.
- Current phase: 1 — research (started).
