Abstract
We present a compiler for a concurrent programming language, which utilizes linear typing to create a safer promise abstraction. The compiler is implemented in OCaml and produces source-level Java code. We provide example programs to demonstrate use of the language, as well as translations of incorrect JavaScript code from StackOverflow to showcase the ability of our language to catch many classes of bugs. Finally, we provide a minimal runtime environment to allow the execution of compiled programs.
