Lily Programming Language 0.12

Lily is a strictly-typed programming language aimed at being a PHP substitute and robust website templating backend. It took syntactic inspiration from Ruby, Python, Scala and Rust. Lily provides static types and inference, prevents undefined values, has enums and variants, parameteric polymorphism and class constructs, lambda functions, a thorough variable inspection function, tuples and lists. It provides a small collection of HTML-specific string functions, but no regex or database bindings yet.
