What and how to contribute

Please submit a pull request or create an issue to add a new language to the list. We are looking for language implementations that are either actively maintained or largely "done". The VM, bytecode compiler, and standard library (if any) must have a free (libre) license. They may have optional add-ons with any license. A Datalog implementation must be able to parse Datalog source code; it must not be just an EDSL.

Do not edit `README.md` directly

README.md is automatically generated from README.md.jinja2 and the data in data/projects.toml. Do not edit README.md directly. To add a project or update a project's information, edit data/projects.toml. Edit README.md.njk to change information not derived from data/projects.toml.

Descriptions

Avoid marketing language in descriptions. You are encouraged to list a few of the project's cool standout features in the description, but don't call the project itself "fast" (relative to what?) or "revolutionary" (a matter of opinion). Write without adjectives when possible. If the project is faster than most implementations of the same language, say that.
