Ziman is a small, statically typed programming language designed to be easy for LLMs to generate and for people to check by eye.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-31 issue.
For
Language implementers and LLM-assisted programmers
Worth noticing
The readme example runs in the test suite on every change, alongside 1,142 fixtures.

Field notes

The documented language includes arrays, structs, enums, generics, and OS-thread concurrency, with values immutable unless declared with var. Its bundled standard library has generated reference material for public signatures, and the homepage says a gate checks that material against the source. The project identifies itself as v0 and explicitly notes that it is not yet fast.
