Hi, it’s been pleasure writing ‘Android App Developing Career‘. Well do you know Facebook has released a new kind of programming language called ‘Hack’ ? In fact when i heard about it, even i though ‘what the heck is this ?’ but after little research and articles I got to know that its a new programming language that is flawless and it will help developers to build complex application and web sites in easy method – Wow! that’s an amazing idea, but how is the possible ? how it works ? What exactly is Hack ? – Let’s get hands on it.
What is Hack Programming Language ?
Now Facebook has its own programming language called ‘Hack’ designed to help their PHP developers. Hackcombines facebook’s PHP runtime environment, (HipHop Virtual Machine) HHVM, which was released in 2012 to marry production and development envrionments to allow it’s PHP developers take a “just-in-time” approach to building on its PHP code base. Essentially, it let PHP developers debug and tune systesms that are running in production. Hack attempts to strike a balance between fast-paced dynamically typed languages and static languages that allow for error detection but might slow things down.
It is hack but it has little to do with hacking. Hack is a new programming language designed by Facebook that will lets programmers build complex websites and other software quickly and most important without Flaws. “We can say with complete assurance that this has been as battle-tested as it can possibly be,” Bryan O’Sullivan, the Facebook engineer behind the language, said in a statement. According to the experts, Hack is a new version of PHP, Mark started building this when he started Facebook.
Where can you learn this Programming Language ?
You might won’t believe me, but it’s really easy – It’s totally same as PHP. Facebook said it has already migrated nearly all of its entire PHP code base to Hack and, as it did with HHVM, released an open source version at hacklang.org as part of its HHVM.
