I - Introduction

1.1 About Nougat

Nougat programming language is a general-purpose dynamic scripting and programming language. Nougat is a high-level programming language, and is compiled just-in-time. This programming language is specially designed for coding dynamicism.

Strictly designed with so much powerful expressiveness in writing programs and/or code, Nougat is also designed for amateurs. With little complexity, oneself can learn Nougat easily.

1.2 Development History

Below is the historical timeline of Nougat development. Starting from its development before getting renamed from being Morph-C.

            • Nougat as Phrygian


            Sat Nov 27 00:57:47 2021 +0800

            • Nougat as Phrygian


            Wed Feb 2 07:52:04 2022 +0800
From Morph-C to Phrygian, from Phrygian to Nougat!

As can be seen above, Nougat was originally created with SharpDevelop and was named Morph-C, however, renaming the project was crucial to not be confused with the programming language that had the almost same name which has nothing to do with the language itself.

1.3 Acknowledgements

Special thanks and acknowledgement to all programmers, developers, and individuals with affliations to the pre-asked questions on the web/internet that helped me through the development of Nougat.
