Cicada Language

[ HOMEPAGE | MANUAL | PLAY | ABOUT ]

Welcome *^-^*/

Cicada language is a dependently typed programming language and an interactive theorem prover.

The aim of cicada project is to help people understand that developing software and developing mathematics are increasingly the same kind of activity, and people who practice these developments can learn from each other, and help each other in very good ways.

Development

npm install           # Install dependencies
npm run build         # Compile `src/` to `lib/`
npm run build:watch   # Watch the compilation
npm run format        # Format the code
npm run test          # Run test
npm run test:watch    # Watch the testing

Thank you, Daniel P. Friedman, for we learned most of our knowledge about programming language design from your little books.

Thank you, David Christiansen, for coauthoring "The Little Typer" with Dan, and writing up great tutorials (1, 2) about dependent types.
