Buraaq 1.0, a Python-shaped systems language

Field notes

The project describes its compiler pipeline as self-hosted, covering the lexer, parser, names, MIR, and LLVM emission rather than relying on Rust or another language runtime. Its vocabulary is intentionally compact: Stream handles framed messages, Hold provides named-column data, Grid covers numeric arrays, and Keel combines page, API, and run operations. The benchmark section publishes five C++ comparisons, including a 1.02× fib_iter result under the stated clang 22 setup.
