Marcel is language that compiles to Java bytecode, with a guaranteed support for Android. It also aims to use primitive types as much as possible when working with Collections.

You can learn more about this programming language on its website

Example

Here is an example on how to code the Fibonacci suite in Marcel

println(fibonacci(10))

@cached
fun int fibonacci(int n) -> switch (n) {
  0, 1 -> n
  else -> fibonacci(n - 1) + fibonacci(n - 2)
}
