Adding your project

Add your project to _data/projects.yml, and then submit a pull request. Place your project where it belongs in alphabetical order. Your project's summary should be under 140 characters (shorter is better). If your project has an icon, upload it to images/lang/.

The most basic possible configuration:

MyProject:
  github: my-org/my-repo
  author: John Doe
  summary: A brief (<140 character) description of my project.
  tags:
    - tag0
    - tag1

Tags can be found in _data/tags.yml.

A real project with such an entry:

C3:
  github: c3lang/c3
  author: Christoffer Lernö
  # Wrap lines over 80 characters long.
  summary: >
    An evolution of C, adding modules, error handling and
    semantic macros.

A more typical project:

Plasma:
  website: https://plasmalang.org/
  github: PlasmaLang/Plasma
  # Place your icon in `images/lang/`.
  # Non-white SVGs or transparent PNGs are preferred.
  # If you are concerned about licensing issues with your language's icon,
  # you may link to it on an external site using a normal URL.
  icon: plasma.png
  # icon: https://example.com/icon/plasma.png
  author:
    name: Paul Bone
    website: https://paul.bone.id.au/
  summary: >
    A language that balances functional and imperative programming,
    and has state-of-the-art concurrency and parallelism features. 

A project with two contributors:

Example:
  website: https://example.com
  authors:
    - arthur
    - name: Jess Writer
      website: https://jwriter.example.com
    - zeus94
  summary: Currently, no real project uses `authors`.

A project which prefers not to single out contributors:

Monte:
  website: https://monte.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html
  github: monte-language
  libera: monte
  organization:
    name: The Monte authors
    # This page should include a list of the people involved.
    # Monte doesn't have a dedicated list, so the LICENSE file will suffice.
    website: https://github.com/monte-language/monte/blob/master/LICENSE
  summary: A dynamic programming language inspired by Python and E.

A large project, only one contributor of which is part of our community:

Mercury:
  website: https://mercurylang.org/
  github: Mercury-Language/mercury
  icon: mercury.png
  organization:
    name: many
    website: https://mercurylang.org/development/people.html
  # This generated authorship list will be `many, including Paul Bone`.
  # The `including` bit is inserted automatically.
  # You may also use `authors`.
  author:
    name: Paul Bone
    website: https://paul.bone.id.au/
  summary: >
    A logic/functional programming language
    with advanced static analysis and error detection features.

Every single community type:

MyProject:
  # You should include at least an author name and a website or repository.
  website: https://kittenlang.org
  github: inko-lang/inko
  gitlab: my-org/my-repo
  # Make sure you don't have too many icons, or they won't all fit.
  # I'd recommend no more than two: one forum-like service (e.g. Reddit, Discourse)
  # and one chat-like service (e.g. Libera, Matrix).
  # If you're really over more services than that, I'd personally recommend reconsidering;
  # a fragmented community isn't good for anybody.
  # If you use a service that isn't listed here, just open an issue, and I'll add it.
