Changelog

0.4.0

Interesting features has been added to Cor this time, the exception handling has been revamped with simplified syntax while it remains fully compatible with javascript exceptions model. The Cor syntax now supports the exist (?) operator, which is a good replacement for the if statement to check for existence, it makes Cor more expressive but still sober and readable.

Let's see an example of error handling in 0.4.0:

// throwing errors
func explode() { error('Booooom!') }

// handling error
func handleError() {
    catch horror() {
        console.log(error())
    }
}

• Syntax
  • Add Exist Operator ?, example: customers[0]?.accounts?.length
  • Change the old try/catch/finally for the catch/error statement
• Remove the package system in favor of well known modules
• Add social icons and links to Documentation
