Languages

You can write Tezos smart contracts in any of these languages:

• LIGO, which has versions with syntaxes similar to JavaScript/TypeScript and OCaml
• SmartPy, which has a syntax similar to Python
• Archetype, which is a high-level language developed specifically for Tezos

Each of these languages are eventually compiled to Michelson, the base language for Tezos smart contracts. For information about Michelson, see Michelson.
