Tight-C is a minimal systems programming language that transpiles to C, featuring only 10 keywords and explicit memory management without garbage collection or type inference. It offers a clean syntax with raw and fat pointers, packed structs, and C FFI, making it interesting as a lean alternative for developers who want C-level control with simpler semantics.

Target audience: backend devs
