Overview

The neo-boa compiler is a tool for compiling Python files to the .avm format for usage to execute contracts on the Ontology.

The compiler supports a subset of the Python language ( in the same way that a boa constrictor is a subset of the Python snake species)

What does it currently do

• Compiles a subset of the Python language to the .avm format for use in the Ontology
• Works for Python 3.6+
• supports dictionaries

What will it do

• Compile a larger subset of the Python language
