Eiffel
Eiffel is an free and open-source object-oriented programming language designed at Eiffel Software by Bertrand Meyer back in 1985. Bertrand Meyer had one goal in mind when he created the language, the goal of increasing the reliability of commercial software development. Today Eiffel comes with its own IDE (Integrated Development Environment) called EiffelStudio, the software can be used to write Eiffel code in a single user interface that includes a compiler, interpreter, debugger, browser, metrics tool, profiler, diagram and code inspector.
Vala
A free and open object-oriented programming language with a self-hosting compiler that generates C code. Vala uses the GObject system and is syntactically similar to C# while introducing unique features like functions, signals, properties, generics, assisted memory management, exception handling, type inference, and foreach statements. Vala makes it simple to target the GNOME stack and is also used for writing applications to the operating system elementary OS.

Beaker Browser
The Beaker Browser is an experimental peer-to-peer web browser for the modern web. The browser allows people to create Hyperdrive websites from within the browser itself, without setting up servers or touching the command-line. These Hyperdrive sites allow other users to visit your site directly from your computer and can be setup using the built-in code editor and published with a single click.
