Oxynium is an open-source programming language I created from the ground up in Rust. It is a statically-typed, compiled language with a syntax similar to Rust and Go. Some of its features include a powerful type system, anonymous and first-class functions, classes, and operator overloading.
I had previously created Entropy Script by following a tutorial, an interpreted language written in TypeScript, which helped with Oxynium.
