Lightweight programming languages are designed to have small memory footprint, are easy to implement (important when porting a language to different computer systems), and/or have minimalist syntax and features. [1] These programming languages have simple syntax and semantics, so one can learn them quickly and easily.
Lightweight markup languages can be categorized by their tag types. Like HTML (<b>bold</b>), some languages use named elements that share a common format for start and end tags (e.g. BBCode [b]bold[/b]), whereas proper lightweight markup languages are restricted to ASCII-only punctuation marks and other non-letter symbols for tags, but some also mix both styles (e.g. Textile bq.
Light verbs, however, are not auxiliary verbs, nor are they full verbs. Light verbs differ from auxiliary verbs in English insofar as they do not pass the syntactic tests that identify auxiliary verbs. The following examples illustrate that light verbs fail the inversion and negation diagnostics that identify auxiliary verbs: a.
Alef – concurrent language with threads and message passing, used for systems programming in early versions of Plan 9 from Bell Labs; Ateji PX – an extension of the Java language for parallelism; Ballerina – a language designed for implementing and orchestrating micro-services. Provides a message based parallel-first concurrency model.
J – An APL-like language which uses only ASCII special characters and adds function-level programming. Light Pattern – A language which uses a series of photographs rather than text as source code. [27] Mouse – A minimalist language created by Peter Grogono which uses ASCII characters for keywords. Piet – An art-based esoteric ...

Its successor, Caml Light, was implemented in C by Xavier Leroy and Damien Doligez, [2] and the original was nicknamed "Heavy Caml" because of its higher memory and CPU requirements. [ 2 ] Caml Special Light was a further complete rewrite that added a powerful module system to the core language.
Light Warlpiri is considered a new language for several reasons: 1) Light Warlpiri speakers use an auxiliary verb-system that older Warlpiri speakers do not while code-mixing, 2) elements are distributed differently in Light Warlpiri than in code-mixing varieties of older Warlpiri speakers, 3) Light Warlpiri is a native language, which ...
