Hey Product Hunt! 👋
First off — thank you for reading this post and considering to buy or comment. It means a lot.
I'm Taha, a 13-year-old developer. I built The Guardian on an HP EliteBook with 4GB RAM running Arch Linux and Neovim — proof that you don't need expensive hardware to build serious software.
What is The Guardian?
A complete C++17 framework for building programming languages, DSLs, and binary formats. It gives you:
🧬 Molecules, Atoms, Quarks — a clean type system
🛡️ LUT-based memory safety — no dangling pointers, no GC
⚡ VM with 40+ opcodes — bytecode execution engine
📦 GBIN binary format — custom serialization
💻 Axiom — a complete demo language included
Why I built it:
I wanted to make language development accessible. Most frameworks are bloated or expensive. The Guardian is 7,000 lines, 0 TODOs, and $20 for commercial use (free for personal/educational).
Technical details:
7,000+ lines of C++17
0 TODOs
70+ files
Built on 4GB RAM
