The Headache Programming Language
Headache is a programming language which compiles to 8 bit brainfuck
The Headache programming language is a Turing Complete language for generating brainfuck programs. It borrows most of its syntax from C
Headache was designed to be the most lightweight technology to compile brainfuck programs, and it can be downloaded with git clone, and builded with make, flex and bison in any unix-like system.
It's compiler, hac, is capable of transpiling headache programs into brainfuck. The generated brainfuck programs can be run in any decent 8 bit brainfuck interpreter.
Headache is also bundled with a custom brainfuck interpreter that includes extra features useful for debugging
Headache is also bundled with an expander program. This program can transform 8 bit brainfuck programs into 16 bit programs, 32 bit programs and so on.
Last, but not least, Headache is bundled with bfalgoConverter program, an utility for converting Brainfuck Algorithms webpage's sample pseudocode into bfalgo() calls inside Headache's source code, i.e. is a tool for developers to make it easier to update Headache with new brainfuck algorithms

A work of art

Looks pretty interesting, I'm still wondering how I'll continue on my esoteric programming language, PolkaPy.

cool project, but isnt brainfk supposed to be hard to code in on purpose?

@candycanearter Yes. And Headache language is to make it not that difficult to normal programmers.
