TODEPOND TIMES: Nogan

Hello! and welcome back... to another weekly edition of the...

What's new this week?
(quite a lot this time)

JavaScript

A while ago, I started my youtube channel by making an engine called SandPond. (It's called the SandPond Saga after all!)

But there's another project behind it, called SpaceTode! It's called SpaceTode because it's a spatial programming language. You can use it to make new SandPond elements.

You type SpaceTode into a text editor. And when the engine loads, your code gets translated into JavaScript so that the SandPond engine can understand it.

The generated JavaScript is very ugly and hard-to-read. But it's not supposed to be read by people! It's written in an unusual way to make it run as fast as possible on your machine.
