Show HN: Céu, Structured Synchronous Reactive Programming

I've been trying to learn more about synchronous programming languages for a while now. Will definitely look into this.

Does anyone know how I could get my hands on Lustre or Esterel? They are not freely available, or are they? Also any good books or resources are very much appreciated.

You can download Esterel freely:

http://www-sop.inria.fr/esterel-org/files/Html/Downloads/Dow...

(AFAIK, it is not open source though.)

[EDIT] For documentation, see "The Esterel Language Primer":

Don't know about Lustre.

Thank you! I'm actually working on my own synchronous language, but it's more in line with Lustre than Esterel. Synchronous dataflow with soft real-time goals. If it starts to look like something decent I'll put it on github.

Since you're interested in the implementation of synchronous languages you could also take a look at Quartz [1]. Their book is a fantastic resource about the topic.
