Groovy Alternatives

Designed and developed by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson at Google. Go or Golang is a compiled programming language that is statically typed and shares similarities with C, syntactically. The programming language was specifically designed to make it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software with safety, garbage collection, structural typing, and CSP-style concurrency.

TypeScript is a free and open-source programming language created by Microsoft. The language is a strict syntactical superset of JavaScript and redefines the way developer writes JavaScript-based web applications and software by adding optional static typing in the mix. TypeScript is designed specifically for development of large-scale applications with a need to transcompile into JavaScript.

A programming language that combines object-oriented and functional programming in one concise, high-level language. Scala is used by developers to build scalable software for the JVM, the Java Virtual Machine. The Scala source code is automatically compiled into Java bytecode that is executable on the JVM. When the language first was designed it aimed to address some of the most common criticisms of Java, and the static types in Scala help developers to avoid bugs in complex applications and large-scale systems.

Java is a programming language and a virtual environment used for software development. The language was created by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems. Today Java and the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) is owned by the Oracle Corporation and is used for developing software applications that can be deployed cross-platform.

Julia is free and open-source high-level, high-performance, dynamic programming language. The language is most commonly used by developers for numerical analysis and computational science. Julia's ecosystem includes many packages that makes easy to create data visualisations, work with data and machine learning.

Elm is a free and open-source domain-specific programming language that uses type inference to detect corner cases and give friendly hints. The language is by developers to create browser-based graphical user interfaces and is designed for usability, performance, and robustness. Elm is purely functional and is actually a compiler that utilize static type checking, which means you can rest assured that your code will run runtime exceptions.

Lua is a lightweight, high-level, multi-paradigm programming language built on top of the C programming language. The language is designed primarily for embedded use in applications and works cross-platform since Lua has a relatively simple C API to embed it into its core.

Pascal is a free and open-source imperative and procedural programming language. The language was designed 1970 by Niklaus Wirth to encourage good programming practices using structured programming and data structuring.

Developed by Bjarne Stroustrup at Bell Labs in 1979, C++ is a general-purpose programming language. C++ was designed as an extension of the work on the programming language C, or "C with Classes". The language run on the most common platforms such as macOS, Windows, Linux and various versions of UNIX. In modern releases of C++ object-oriented, generic, and functional features in addition to facilities for low-level memory manipulation has been introduced.

Rebol is a lightweight, cross-platform data exchange programming language. The language is designed by Carl Sassenrath and is suited for network communications and distributed computing. Rebol's unique simplistic design makes it a productive language that is loved by its users.

A Microsoft developed domain-specific programming language used for expressing quantum algorithms. Q# share similar structures and elements with popular languages like Python, C#, and F#. The language comes bundled with the QDK (Quantum Development Kit) and quantum simulators, while also being extensible with Q# libraries. With Q# developers can build quantum algorithms used for quantum computing with a basic procedural model for writing programs with loops, if/then statements, and common data types.
