About:
Gravity is a lightweight, embeddable programming language designed for integration into host applications. It provides a scripting layer with a familiar C-like syntax, enabling extensibility and runtime logic without heavy dependencies. Its main value proposition is offering a simple yet powerful way to add scripting capabilities to C/C++ projects.

Key Features:

Embeddable architecture for easy integration into C/C++ applications
Clean, C-like syntax that is easy for developers to learn
Lightweight runtime with minimal memory footprint
Support for classes, closures, and single inheritance

Use Cases:

Adding a scripting engine to game engines or desktop applications
Creating a plugin system for existing C/C++ software
Rapid prototyping of application logic without recompilation

Alternatives:

Lua – Lua is the de facto standard for embedding, with a larger ecosystem but a different, non-C-like syntax.
mruby – mruby brings Ruby syntax to embedded contexts, offering higher-level abstractions at the cost of a larger footprint.
