# Nir

A compiled, metaprogrammable systems language with Scheme semantics.

- Native code via QBE backend
- Lisp macros that compile to zero-overhead machine code
- Two-zone memory model: managed GC + explicit arena allocation
- DSLs as first-class language constructs

**Status: Early development**
