Darklang

Founded 2019

Build and deploy cloud applications and command-line scripts without configuring infrastructure

You can use Darklang to write and run backend services, command-line utilities, and web endpoints without managing deployment pipelines, containers, or servers. The functional programming language eliminates complex build systems, packaging steps, and database connection pooling. It features static typing with records and enums, built-in asynchronous execution without async keywords, and direct command-line execution for functions in its package manager. You can also integrate with generative AI models to write code automatically while deploying your APIs and background tasks instantly to cloud infrastructure.

What Darklang does

Deploy a web endpoint to the cloudExecute a shared function via the CLIGenerate code scripts from text promptsDefine custom data types using records and enumsManage permissions for untrusted script executionHandle asynchronous HTTP requests without extra syntaxFetch and run package manager functions directlyExecutes code directly from the command line without traditional build stepsProvides instant cloud deployment for APIs, worker queues, and databasesUses gradual static typing with simple record and enum typesHandles asynchronous tasks automatically without async and await keywordsIncludes an immutable package manager that versions individual functionsConnects with GitHub Copilot and OpenAI models for automated code generationEliminates null and exceptions by using Option and Result types
