Wouldn’t it be cool if we could easily select features to build our own programming language? Imagine when you buy a car or a computer, for example — you select a base model/something to start with, and then add or remove options. I work with Java for a few good years, and I like it — it’s not dead for sure (not for me at least). But I’d wish I could quickly start coding in the terminal, as you can do with Python. Am I asking for too much?

I don’t want to move to Python completely. Overall, I don’t want to switch languages for working with different domains. Perhaps I can build my own from scratch, including whatever I want. But it’s not the point. I’d like to have a generic template and pick and choose different features easily.

Without further ado, below are some of the things I’d like my perfect language to have. Inspired by Java and Python.
