Topaz is a small, Unicode-first programming language that compiles to Rust, designed to simplify intent expression while ensuring safety through a locked specification and toolchain. It stands out with its agent-ready design, Unicode-native identifiers, and structured templates for SQL/shell/path strings. The project is innovative but currently niche due to its early release and specialized target audience.
