Why this is awesome
Capa is a capability-typed programming language with a working transpiler (Python target), 946-test CI matrix across Linux / macOS / Windows x Python 3.10 / 3.12 / 3.14, beta release status (v0.8.2-beta), full website, and LSP server.
The distinguishing design choice is that every function declares its authority (
Fs,Net,Env,Clock,Random, plus user-defined capabilities) as part of the type. The compiler then emits standard supply-chain governance artefacts (CycloneDX SBOM, SPDX SBOM, CycloneDX VEX, SLSA L1 provenance) at per-function granularity from those signatures, grounded in the type system rather than a separate static analyser.Website: https://capa-language.com/
Alphabetical position observed: between BOLT and ChezScheme's Compiler.
