Genie (Programming Language)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Genie is a modern, general-purpose high-level programming language in active development since 2008. It was designed as an alternative, simpler and cleaner dialect for the Vala compiler, while preserving the same functionality of the Vala language. Genie's syntax is derived from numerous modern languages like Python, Boo, D and Delphi. Like Vala, Genie uses the GObject type system to create classes and interfaces declared in Genie source code, without imposing additional runtime requirements (i.e., unlike Python, Java or Mono, it does not require a virtual machine).
