There is no sin but ignorance – Christopher Marlowe

The Cardano blockchain is written in the famed and feared programming language, Haskell. Haskell is the basis of both Cardano programming languages, Plutus and Marlowe. Plutus is the general purpose programming language for all manner of smart contracts on Cardano. Marlowe is a simpler programming language specifically for writing financial smart contracts. A language like Marlowe that is specialized for one focused use is called a “Domain Specific Language,” or DSL. Rather than being aimed at computer developers generally, Marlowe’s target audience is financial professionals who can leverage their domain expertise to be able to create and manage smart contracts, without necessarily needing to be a developer, or hire one.
