Spoken
A programming language with natural-language-inspired syntax for Sui contracts, with an interpreter and VS Code extension. Move compilation is a subsequent development target.

- CompilerDeveloper tooling
Context
Spoken explores Sui contract authoring through sentence-like syntax. The .spk format and VS Code extension provide an entry point for writing the language, while an interpreter executes parsed forms.
Architecture
The lexer turns source into tokens, the parser builds an AST, and the interpreter processes that structure. Move type checking sits within the language pipeline. The editor extension provides syntax highlighting and snippets around source authoring.

Implementation
- The language pipeline separates the lexer, parser, AST, interpreter, and Move type checking.
- A VS Code extension provides language syntax and snippets for authoring contracts.
