Quokka
An AI/ML-focused Python alternative, built in India.
Quokka is an AI/ML-focused programming language built in India — designed as a Python alternative for modern machine learning. It features a self-hosting compiler, bootstrap verification, immutable-by-default variables, Result/Option error handling, and Python/ML interoperability. Quokka already works with real ML workflows, including QLoRA fine-tuning of 1B-parameter models. 🦘 Built for AI/ML. Built to self-host. Built in India.
Quokka started as a simple question: what would a programming language look like if AI and machine learning were considered first-class use cases from the beginning?
I started experimenting with the idea, and roughly 12 hours later, I had a working language.
Since then, Quokka has grown into a self-hosting, open-source programming language with ML tooling, Python interoperability, QLoRA support, and its own native ML layer, Joey.
It’s still early, and there’s a lot left to build. I’m launching Quokka here because I want to hear from developers, ML engineers, and programming-language enthusiasts who are willing to challenge the idea and tell me what should be better.
If you try it, I’d genuinely love to hear what you think.

Who hunted Quokka?
Quokka was hunted by Aksh Raj. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
