Vult is a simple and powerful language to program high-performance algorithms that may run in small microprocessors or microcontrollers. Vult is specially useful when programming Digital Signal Processing (DSP) algorithms like audio effects or synthesizers.
The Vult compiler is a transcompiler, which takes Vult code and produces plain C code that can be compiled in any platform with a C/C++ compiler, for example: Arduino or Teensy boards. Vult can also generate JavaScript that can be run directly in the browser. Code written in Vult has freedom.

- Ocaml compiler >= 4.02
- ocaml-containers >= 0.6.1
- ppx_deriving >= 2.0
- ocamlgraph >= 1.8.6
- [Optional] oUnit >= 2.0 (to run the tests)
The simplest way to instal the requirements is with OPAM (https://opam.ocaml.org/)
$ opam switch 4.02.1
$ opam install containers ppx_deriving ocamlgraph
Optionally to run the tests:
$ opam install ounit
$ ./scripts/build.sh
In platforms without bash you can build with the following command:
$ ocamlbuild -use-ocamlfind -pkg containers -pkg str -pkg ocamlgraph vultc.native
- Better syntax checking
- External functions
- Constant arrays
- More powerful shared context
- Proof of concept
- C code generation
- Javascript generation
