The all in one, new python. reStructuredPython aka 'rePython' is a superset of python with many new features, such as header files, similar to C and C++, Optional Javascript-like syntax with curly brackets {} around control loops, function chanining and more. All the features can be found in the syntax/feature guide of our documentation https://restructuredpython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference/Syntax_Guide.html

To download the reStructuredPython compiler using the python package index:

pip install --upgrade restructuredpython

Download our vscode extension with intellisense support from the visual studio marketplace

To use the reStructuredPython compiler:

repy path/to/your/file.repy

It is that simple!

Basics

reStructuredPython code is written in a file extension .repy and reStructuredPython header files are written with the file extension .cdata. Functions can now be chained in a more readable syntax. Control loops an be defined with curly brackets, instead of colons. View entries 1, 2, and 3 of the syntax guide for more details.
