The syntax is going to be just like in Java, with the difference that you can write anything there because in Xtend statements doesn't exist:

class MyClass {
  
  String name = "Horst"

  String greeting = "Hello "+name

}

Type inference for fields would be syntactically ambigious:

extension TypeName typeNameOrFieldName = "initialValue"

vs

extension TypeName
typeNameOrFieldName = "initialValue"

thus I'll use a mandatory type for now:

extension TypeName 
TypeName typeNameOrFieldName = "initialValue"
