Lisaac is a compiled object-oriented programming language based on prototype concepts, with system programming facilities and design by contract.
Lisaac's developers admired both Self's flexibility and dynamic inheritance, and Eiffel's static typing and design by contract features. Seeking to combine these two apparently contradictory feature sets, Lisaac was created.

Lisaac is a compiled object-oriented programming language based on prototype concepts, with system programming facilities and design by contract.
Lisaac's developers admired both Self's flexibility and dynamic inheritance, and Eiffel's static typing and design by contract features. Seeking to combine these two apparently contradictory feature sets, Lisaac was created.
Lisaac was designed as the language in which the Isaac operating system would be programmed.
The Lisaac transpiler produces optimized ANSI C code, which can then be compiled on every architecture with an appropriate C compiler which makes Lisaac a real multi-platform language. Compiling results show that it is possible to obtain executables from a high-level prototype-based language that are as fast as C programs.
Despite being strongly typed, there is no difference between code and data.
Lisaac is case sensitive. Keywords are capitalized (Section, Header, Public, …), type identifiers are written in upper case letters ...
