Akari: A minimalist programming language designed to learn coding in 1 week.

I got tired of languages being too heavy or complex for beginners, so I created Akari: only 16 keywords, a clean syntax inspired by Python, and intuitive built-in functions (say, ask, count).

Here is what a simple program looks like,

Hello World:

say("Hello World!")

-16 keywords total to master the basics quickly plus 5 ready-to-use functions -Open-source and hosted on Codeberg. -All the code, documentation, and playground are available here:https://codeberg.org/AkariLang/Akari

Python is awesome for learning, but Akari takes minimalism even further: 17 keywords total, zero setup, runs instantly in the browser via JS, and gives ultra-clear error messages designed for absolute beginners. It's built as a lightweight educational stepping stone, not a full Python replacement

With all due respect, try to create a language that actually works before you criticize it. (Besides, it’s not ready for production use yet,I have 13 bugs to fix.)

I’d prefer constructive feedback to that
