Looks very similar to typescript, also...

Eventually, I plan on supporting unicode characters like “≥” and deprecating their digraph alternatives like “>=”.

I get allowing unicode characters, but you do know that will make it much harder to write and maintain programs, as it's not a key on a regular keyboard...

Yes, I realise my mistake.

Have you tried Typescript? It's extremely popular now and seems to have all the features you're presenting, it would also be a good place to start if you really wanted your own language.
