Developing Tindar: A Native Arabic Programming Language

This paper introduces Tindar, a new Arabic programming language designed to ease programming education and computing interaction for Arabic speakers. Tindar features a simple, extensible structure supporting fundamental programming concepts, object-oriented programming, and functional programming features. Its architecture comprises a parser, syntactic analyzer, code generator, and virtual machine. Implemented in Rust for speed and security, the Tindar compiler outperforms Python in performance tests and is cross-platform compatible. This work emphasizes the significance of culturally and linguistically relevant computing interfaces, addressing the linguistic and technical challenges of integrating Tindar with modern development environments and offering practical solutions.
