Alice was created between October 2016 and April 2017 by me, with a lot of help from Sp3000. It started out as "a quick one-or-two week project" just for the sake of getting something done because I wasn't making any progress with my other language ideas. Well, you can count the months yourself... I guess it's what I deserve for turning feature creep into a design goal.
If you want a first taste of the language, here is Hello, World! (I might update this link with an answer that showcases more features in the future. If you see this in a few months and I didn't, let me know.) The language repository also has some example programs.
I've got a bunch of people to thank for their help with this language. As I said above, Sp3000 has been a huge help, testing the language, giving feedback, and throwing ideas back and forth. But I've also worked in some ideas from discussions on SE: thanks to Basic Sunset, flawr, Mistah Figgins, muddyfish, Nathan Merrill, Peter Taylor and Poke (and probably some others whom I forgot).
- GitHub repository. Includes language specification, reference implementation (Ruby), example programs and issue tracker.
- Try it online! (by Dennis) backed by the Ruby interpreter.
- SE Chatroom. For any questions and discussions about the language, bug reports, etc. I'll usually be pingable in there.
