Metab Language

Simplifying your code, speeding your development!

Metab is a clear language to work with javascript. Everything you write in Metab language compile to standard javascript to run in many places, from a common browser to a IoT device with node.js

In Metab language, you write this:

class File
	enum TYPES FILE, FOLDER, LINK	# enumerates
	static Type = TYPES.FILE		# statics vars
	Name	
	
	ReadAll ->
		<- 'Data'			# simply returns
	
class Folder : File			# short inheritance
	static Type = TYPE.FOLDER
	
	GetFiles ->
		<- ['file1','file2']
	

to run this:

class File{
	constructor(...args) {
		this.Name = null;
		if(!(this.constructor.prototype instanceof File) && this.init)return this.init(...args);
	}
	ReadAll() 	{
		return 'Data';
	}

}
File.TYPES = {
	"FILE" : 0,
	"FOLDER" : 1,
	"LINK" : 2
};
File.Type = File.TYPES.FILE;

class Folder extends File{
	constructor(...args) {
		super(...args);
		if(!(this.constructor.prototype instanceof Folder) && this.init)return this.init(...args);
	}
	GetFiles() 	{
		return ['file1', 'file2'];
	}

}
Folder.Type = TYPE.FOLDER;
