- EYG (Eat Your Greens) is a statically typed functional programming language designed for makers (non-professional developers).
- It aims to remove infrastructure and deployment complexities so users can focus on describing problem logic.
- Key features include sound type inference without upfront type definitions, hashed dependencies to avoid dependency hell, and effect typing for side effect management.
- The language targets home-cooked software like glue problems, personal dashboards, and automations.
- The author's measure of 'better' is how well the language enables makers to build reliable, sharable programs.
