A programming language and environment for teaching OOP.

You have two options to download an use Wollok. Download a complete Wollok Product Distribution:

• Linux: 32 / 64 bits
• Mac 32 / 64 bits
• Windows 32 / 64 bits

Update Site (if you already have a compatible eclipse):

• http://update.uqbar.org/wollok/stable : for the latest stable release
• http://update.uqbar.org/wollok/dev : for the current dev (work in progress) version

Or drag and drop

Finally if you just want the headless Development Kit (WDK), for example to use a different IDE than Eclipse, you can download it from

• http://download.uqbar.org/wollok/sdk/

This is useful for example if you are going to develop with Sublime or any other lightweight text editor

Refer to the wiki for documentation like Language Reference and Environment.

• Object Oriented
• Non "class-centered". Allows you to create objects as first-class citizens without the need of classes. To start working with objects without introducing complex subjects and mechanisms as hierarchies, overriding methods, etc.
• Tries to maximize compile-time checks while keeping the power of a dynamic language.
• With implicit types: by means of a type system and type inference mechanism.
• A clean modern syntax avoiding unnecessary symbols (java) while keeping it simple and even familiar for those who already have some experience in programming)
• Interpreted: means that the code is being evaluated as it's being read. Although its declarative syntax makes it feel like a compiled language

package fliers {

   object superman {
        method fly(to) {
             // ...
        }
   }

   class Plane {
        method fly(to) {
            // ...
        }
   }

}

  val aBird = object {
        method fly(to) {
             // ...
        }
  }

  [ superman, new Plane(), aBird ].forEach { o => o.fly() }

Check out our Language Reference for a concrete idea of the syntax

You can either use its IDE:

• Completely integrated with Eclipse.
• With: many static code analysis, Quick-Fixes, Refactors
• An interactive Console (REPL)
• Visual representations: Outline, Static diagram, Objects Diagrams
• A debugger.

Or use the WDK which has command line tools for running and checkin a program. This is also integrated with Sublime Editor.

If you want to contribute to the Wollok development that would be awesome ! We have set a number of wiki pages to help you start, and also documented conventions and instructions for different tasks.
