Developer Ankur Sethi built a complete programming language called Cutlet using Claude Code, generating every line of code with AI assistance over four weeks. The language features arrays, strings, variables, and vectorized operations, and runs on macOS and Linux. This experiment demonstrates the potential for LLMs to create functional programming tools with minimal human intervention.
Background
Large language models like Claude are increasingly being used for code generation, but typically for specific tasks or boilerplate code. This project pushes the boundaries by having an AI generate an entire programming language implementation.
