 Most websites are quite easy to describe in English, yet programmers write their code in JavaScript, which looks nothing like English and which for anyone other than an expert is very hard to follow. So we created ~ec~, a language that looks a lot like English and lets you code much the same way you describe your site. It's a productivity tool you can use to build parts of websites or even entire websites.
 
 For example, suppose you want to react to the user clicking a screen element by turning the background of that element pink. This is an action requiring a small piece of CSS that sets the 'background' style of the element to 'pink'. In ~ec~ it's just that:

 The main features of ~ec~ are as follows:
 
 ~ec~ looks like English; not conversational English, admittedly, but the sort of English we use when giving directions or following a recipe. A formalized version of English, that doesn't use the symbols usually found in conventional programming languages, which cause ordinary people such grief when trying to match brackets or figure what a triple-equals is for.

 My name is Graham Trott. I've been writing easy-to-use high-level programming languages for over 30 years and using them to solve real-world problems and needs. Since (at the time of writing) I'm now in my 70s this will probably be the last one in the line, hence the need to document everything as well as possible. This website - [(https://easycoder.github.io](https://easycoder.github.io) - is hosted by GitHub and will probably outlive me by a comfortable margin, so you can't rely on being able to contact me for help. The site is attached to the [EasyCoder](https://github.com/easycoder) repository, where you will find all the source code.
