Changelog

Aqua compiler's versioning scheme is the following: 0.BREAKING.ENHANCING.RELEASE

• 0 shows that Aqua does not meet its vision yet, so syntax and semantics can change quickly

• BREAKING part is incremented for each breaking change when old .aqua files need to be updated to compile with the new version

• ENHANCING part is incremented for every syntax addition

• RELEASE is the release number, shows internal compiler changes, bugfixes that keep the language untouched

​0.3.1 – September 13, 2021

• Now .aqua extension in imports is optional: you may import "file.aqua" or just import "file" with the same effect (#292)

​0.2.1 – August 31, 2021
