Concatenative programming languages, or "catlangs" as their fans affectionately call them, are an alternative programming paradigm with lots of features that set them apart.
One interesting thing about them is that they tend to be relatively easy to implement from scratch.
So in an attempt to get across how awesome they are, this week's presenter decided to design and implement one from scratch in a week in their spare time, and mostly succeeded! And now they will try to redo it live in the twenty minutes that they have to present.
Think of it as a programming-language implementation speed-run! It is going to be a glorious train-wreck!
