🛠️ The Idyllic language reverses the conventional paradigm that surrounds Node REST APIs: usually, you have to write your functions _for a framework_. With Idyllic, you can assemble your API completely independently of your functions themselves—now, an API is simply a wrapper over regular old Typescript functions! The language itself comes with a pretty big suite of features (you can read more about them at the Github page):
• Static typing with Typescript & definition types
• Parameterized, first-class macro support with Fragments
• Data pipelines with Sequences
• First-class support for Middleware and Guards
• Query parameter capturing
• Request type definitions
🕸️ The repository also comes with a minimal HTTP server that takes in a compiled Idyll and starts up a fully-functioning API from it:
import { IdyllicCompiler } from "@idyllic/compiler";
import { IdyllicServer } from "@idyllic/server";

(async () => {
    
    // The fromFile static method reads the file into a string for us
    const compiler = await IdyllicCompiler.fromFile("ast.idl")

    // The compile method executes all 5 stages of compilation automatically.
    const compiled = await compiler.compile()
    
    // The server constructor takes in a compiled Idyllic object.
    const server = new IdyllicServer(compiled)
    
    // The start function takes in a port number (defaults to 3000) and a function to be executed on start.
    server.start(3000, () => {
        console.log("Idyllic server has started!")
    })

})()
