MiniScript 2.0 is a complete rewrite of the MiniScript language. It is the cornerstone of the 2026 MiniScript Road Map. For MiniScript 1.x source code, see here.

MiniScript 2.0 is developed in C# and transpiled to C++ for production performance. The VM uses 32-bit fixed-width instructions and supports computed-goto dispatch on supported compilers. Thanks to a performance-first design throughout, MiniScript 2 is up to 45X faster than MiniScript 1. It also includes some nice new language features, including a new error type and frozen (immutable) lists and maps.

See What's New in MiniScript 2 (also available in PDF form) for details on what has changed since MiniScript 1.x.

Command-line MiniScript is available as a binary for Windows, Linux, and Mac, as well as a C# version that can be used on any .NET system. Go to the Releases page to find the latest .zip or .gz achieve for your platform.
