Imba — A new programming language, just for the web

From the website: "Imba is a new programming language for the web that compiles to performant JavaScript. It is heavily inspired by ruby and python, but developed explicitly for web programming (both server and client). It has language level support for defining, extending, subclassing, instantiating and rendering dom nodes. For a semi-complex application like TodoMVC, it is more than 10 times faster than React with less code, and a much smaller library."

This looks really cool and fun. Is the name Dota inspired?

Looks cool, I should give it a try !
