Like raw strings, there can be any number of equals signs between the square brackets, provided both the opening and closing tags have a matching number of equals signs; this allows nesting as long as nested block comments/raw strings use a different number of equals signs than their enclosing comment: --[[comment --[=[ nested comment ...
This is a list of notable programming languages with features designed for object-oriented programming (OOP).. The listed languages are designed with varying degrees of OOP support.
In 2018, Kotlin was the fastest growing language on GitHub, with 2.6 times more developers compared to 2017. [54] It is the fourth most loved programming language according to the 2020 Stack Overflow Developer Survey. [55] Kotlin was also awarded the O'Reilly Open Source Software Conference Breakout Award for 2019. [56]
Scala is often compared with Groovy and Clojure, two other programming languages also using the JVM. Substantial differences between these languages exist in the type system, in the extent to which each language supports object-oriented and functional programming, and in the similarity of their syntax to that of Java.

sbt is the de facto build tool in the Scala community, [6] used, for example, by the Scala 2 and Scala 3 compilers themselves, [7] [8] Play Framework, and Lichess, a popular chess server. The sbt project is "bootstrapped" — it uses sbt to build itself and considers dogfooding a positive feature.
This list of JVM Languages comprises notable computer programming languages that are used to produce computer software that runs on the Java virtual machine (JVM). Some of these languages are interpreted by a Java program, and some are compiled to Java bytecode and just-in-time (JIT) compiled during execution as regular Java programs to improve performance.
