About:
Erg is a statically typed language with a Python-like syntax designed to be a drop-in replacement or superset of Python. It offers powerful type inference and a rich type system to catch errors at compile-time, enhancing code reliability and performance while maintaining compatibility with existing Python codebases.
Key Features:
  • Python-compatible syntax and interoperability
  • Powerful static type system with inference
  • High-performance compilation
  • Erg-specific features like ownership system for memory safety
Use Cases:
  • Building high-performance applications with Python-like syntax
  • Refactoring or migrating Python projects for type safety
  • Developing robust systems where runtime errors are costly
Alternatives:
  • Mypy – Mypy is a static type checker for Python, whereas Erg is a full statically typed language that compiles to native code.
  • Cython – Cython adds C types to Python for performance, while Erg offers a distinct, Rust-inspired language design with Python compatibility.
