Rad

by @amterp

I'm working on two main projects at the moment. One is Rad [0], a programming language tailored for writing CLI scripts and tools (mainly an alternative to Bash), taking a declarative approach to things like script arguments. Latest push has been largely on static type analysis, since making that really good is the sort of thing that helps both people and AI agents write good Rad. Second project is Kan [2], a Kanban board which operates on text files on your machine, and is designed to be Git friendly so you can check it into your repo.
