REdACT

(also known as "REDACT" or "REACT")

Background

REdACT is a esolang based coding language that mainly uses block characters ("█", "▓", etc...) made by "User:FurCantCodeAnything" and is heavily inspired by brainfuck and whitespace

First thought of at 3/1/2025. This was created for a academic coding project for 3/18/2025 (As of current, still being worked on). It is meant to look like a overly redacted document as a parody of people who overuse the "█" symbol.

Its main way of data storage is similar to brainfuck's, however, instead of being a 1D plane, its a 2D plane

As of the time of this article being written, there is no interpreter made yet however there is one in progress by the creator.
