Cling interprets C++

Cling is an interactive C++ interpreter built on top of Clang and LLVM. It uses LLVM’s Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler to provide a fast and optimized compilation pipeline. Cling uses the read-eval-print-loop (REPL) approach, making rapid application development in C++ possible, avoiding the classic edit-compile-run-debug cycle approach. You can download Cling from GitHub.
