annote: Writing java using only annotations
SMRTR summary
Annote transforms Java annotations into a functional programming language, using @Var, @If, @Loop, and @Print to execute entire programs through reflection. Originally designed for metadata, annotations now handle variables, control flow, arithmetic, and I/O operations, creating functional code that executes at runtime while bypassing traditional Java syntax entirely.
