Language design and development
This is more relevant recently due to the surge in language creation. Sub-topics include:
- Posts by language creators about their languages; design, development, implementation, unique features, etc.
- Comparison of and/or expositions on language styles (stack-based/procedural/tacit, prefix/postfix/infix, etc.)
- In-depth explorations of the pros and cons of golfing languages vs. non-golfing languages (succinctness, readability, typing speed, execution speed, etc.)
I think this could be an especially rich field that PPCG members could contribute to due to the plethora of language creators and users of languages made by PPCGers.
