This free online converter lets you convert code from Bash to Carbon in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
| Characteristic | Bash | Carbon |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Shell scripting syntax, command-line oriented, uses commands and pipelines, less strict structure. | C-like syntax, modern and structured, designed for clarity and maintainability. |
| Paradigm | Procedural, scripting, command-based automation. | Multi-paradigm (procedural, object-oriented), designed for systems programming. |
| Typing | Dynamically typed, weak typing, variables are strings by default. | Statically typed, strong typing, type safety enforced at compile time. |
| Performance | Interpreted, slower, suitable for automation and scripting tasks. | Compiled, high performance, intended for systems and application development. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Limited, relies on external Unix/Linux commands and utilities. | Still emerging, intended to interoperate with C++ libraries, ecosystem under development. |
| Community and support | Large, mature, extensive documentation and community support. | Small, early-stage, growing interest but limited resources and support. |
| Learning curve | Gentle for basic tasks, steeper for advanced scripting and edge cases. | Moderate to steep, especially for those unfamiliar with C++-like languages. |
