About

Bastascript is a dialect of JavaScript which enables simple, idiomatic functional programming. Unlike JS, Bastascript contains tools for writing terse, yet powerful code while eliminating features of JavaScript widely considered to be flaws.

Concurrent and highly asynchronous languages like JavaScript have a traditionally verbose syntax, requiring numerous closures and nested constructs to accomplish simple goals. Bastascript is designed to extend JS such that these patterns can be reduced to single statements or expressions.
