Turnstyle is a graphical
esoteric programming language loosely inspired by
Piet. Both encode programs as images, however, the similarities end at the syntax level.
Where Piet is really a stack machine in disguise, Turnstyle is an encoding of the (untyped)
Lambda calculus. This allows for building more reusable images at a higher level of abstraction, while still keeping the specification small, making it relatively easy to develop new interpreters.
