GRAMMERS Is Here: A Programming Sci-Fi Manga and New T-Shirts
That moment when a stubborn piece of code finally works. The attachment you develop to a favorite programming language. If those feelings sound familiar, meet GRAMMERS.
The programming-themed sci-fi manga by benzookapi is now available at BENZOOKAPI STORE as a PDF in English and Japanese. GRAMMERS T-shirts have also joined the store, so you can explore the story and bring a little of its world into your everyday wardrobe.
The personality of programming, turned into a manga
Created around 2016 and originally published in Geechs Magazine, GRAMMERS turns the quirks of programming languages into powers in a hero sci-fi story. Java, Ruby and concepts such as static typing and duck typing become part of the adventure.
It is a playful way to revisit an attachment that many developers know: not just getting a result, but enjoying the language and the process of making something work.
