What is Wren?
Wren is a small, fast, class-based concurrent scripting language. Imagine Smalltalk in a Lua-sized package with a dash of Erlang, wrapped in familiar modern syntax.
The VM is implemented in fewer than 4,000 semicolons. You can browse the entire thing in an afternoon. It's small but not dense. It's readable and enthusiastically commented. The fast single-pass compiler generates compact bytecode, and compact object representations help Wren compete with other dynamic languages. Wren puts classes front and center. Lightweight fibers are central to the execution model, letting you organize your program as a set of communicating coroutines.
