#+title: UrbsTalk
- tags :: [[file:20210429105507-my_programming_languages.org][my programming languages]]

UrbsTalk is the code name for the custom programming language used in Project
Urbs. It is inspired by [[file:20210520131752-hypertalk.org][HyperTalk]].

Each UrbsTalk "script" is contained to a card, and even a component in a card at
that.

Each component can have a label. The UI will be similar to Visual Basic Studio.

* Goals
- Easy to write, idiomatic
- Should require little technical skill
- Should be able to manipulate card applications
* Features
- Statements are line-based
* Possible samples
#+begin_example
set dog to "fido"
set radius to 60
draw circle with radius of $radius

on click:
    add 1 to radius
    set radius to 1 - radius
