CLI Úsáid

  • Clóscríobh setanta isteach sa teirminéal chun REPL a oscailt.
  • Clóscríobh setanta <ainm comhad> le comhad foinseach éigin chun an ríomhchlár a tosnú.

CLI Usage

  • Type setanta into the terminal to open a REPL.
  • Type setanta <file name> with some source file to start the program.

Stair Setanta

D'fhorbair mé Setanta mar chuid de mo thionscadal an bliana deiridh ag Ollscoil Mhá Nuad. Tá mo thráchtas le fheiceáil anseo.

Rinne mé Setanta mar thug mé faoi deara go raibh beagnach gach teanga ríomhchláruchain forbartha as Béarla. Theastaigh uaim teanga ríomchlárucháin a cruthú a bhí go hiomlán as Gaeilge ar feadh chúpla cúis.

  • Chun doras a oscailt do dhaoine chun conas a ríomhchlárú a fhoghlaim trí mheán na Gaeilge.
  • Chun an nasc idir Béarla agus na gnáth-theanga ríomhchláruchain a taiscéaladh. B'fhéidir go bhfuil naisc ann nach bhfuil soiléir.
  • Chun feabhas a chur ar mo chuid Gaeilge. Ní cainteoir dúchais mé, thóg mé an deis seo chun mo chuid Gaeilge a chleachtadh, agus a neartú.

History of Setanta

I developed Setanta as part of my final year project at Maynooth University. My thesis can be seen here.

I made Setanta because I noticed that nearly all programming languages were developed in English. I wanted to create a programming language that was entirely in Irish for a few reasons.

  • To open a door for people to learn how to program through Irish.
  • To explore the connection between English and the usual programming languages. Maybe there are connections that are not very obvious.
  • To improve my own Irish. I'm not a native speaker, I took this opportunity to practice and strengthen my Irish.
