قلب is a programming language exploring the role of human culture in coding. Code is written entirely in Arabic, highlighting cultural biases of computer science and challenging the assumptions we make about programming.

It is an exploration of the impact of human culture on computer science, the role of tradition in software engineering, and the connection between natural and computer language
