# Schala

A strongly-typed, pure functional language with imperative syntax affordances.

## Key Features
- Pure functional core with imperative syntax sugar
- Strong static typing system
- Curly-brace syntax (no significant whitespace)
- Rust-style manual memory management without GC
- WebAssembly compilation target (with plans for native targets)

## Design Philosophy
Schala aims to combine the safety and reasoning benefits of functional programming with familiar syntax for developers from imperative backgrounds. The language prioritizes compile-time checks to eliminate runtime value errors.

## Project Status
Early experimental development.
