Tampiorama

A showcase for Tampio, a natural-language object-oriented programming language that uses Finnish grammar and compiles to JavaScript.

Tampiorama provides working, annotated examples and documentation to help you explore Tampio without wrestling with its native dependencies.

Quickstart (Docker)

The easiest way to try Tampio, no manual libvoikko setup required:

docker compose run --rm tampio

This drops you into a shell with tampio available. Run any example:

tampio examples/basics/hello.tampio

What is Tampio?

Tampio programs read like Finnish sentences. Methods are defined using grammatical cases, so the language's syntax is shaped by natural-language morphology rather than punctuation.

[Tampio example will go here]

See docs/cheatsheet.md for a map of Finnish grammatical cases to their roles in Tampio code, and docs/vs-javascript.md for side-by-side comparisons with JavaScript.

Examples

Directory	Contents
examples/basics/	Hello world, factorial, Fibonacci
examples/data-structures/	Lists, maps
examples/strings/	String manipulation
examples/async/	Promise / async usage
examples/program/	A small complete program

Local Setup (without Docker)

See docs/install.md for instructions on installing libvoikko and tampio natively.
