Let's talk about the main features of the language for a first taste of its potential.

Open Source
The complete source code is available and distribuited under the GPL license.

Object Orientation
All variables in Biferno are class instances. This allows developers to write more readable and modular code that can easily be reused in different projects.

Efficiency
The Biferno interpreter is completely written in the C language and optimization of execution speed has been a constant goal throughout the development process.

Portability
One of the main problems for Web site developers is the maze of different platforms (operating systems, Web servers, databases) and their incompatibilities. Biferno's system independence allows to migrate a whole site from a platform to a new one with minimal effort.

Extendibility
A complete public C interface and a downloadable SDK will soon be released, allowing developers to write their own Biferno classes. All Biferno classes (ranging from int to string to file) are based on this interface.
