What is RedPRL?
RedPRL is the People's Refinement Logic, a next-generation homage to Nuprl; RedPRL was preceeded by JonPRL, written by Jon Sterling, Daniel Gratzer and Vincent Rahli.
The purpose of RedPRL is to provide a practical implementation of Computational Cubical Type Theory in the Nuprl style, integrating modern advances in proof refinement.
Literature and background on RedPRL
RedPRL is (becoming) a proof assistant for Computational Cubical Type Theory, as described by Angiuli, Favonia, and Harper in Computational Higher Type Theory III: Univalent Universes and Exact Equality. The syntactic framework is inspired by second-order abstract syntax (relevant names include Aczel, Martin-Löf, Fiore, Plotkin, Turi, Harper, and many others).
What is this repository?
This is the repository for the nascent development of RedPRL. RedPRL is an experiment which is constantly changing; we do not yet have strong documentation, but we have an IRC channel on Freenode (#redprl) where we encourage anyone to ask any question, no matter how silly it may seem.
How do I build it?
First, fetch all submodules. If you are cloning for the first time, use
git clone --recursive [email protected]:RedPRL/sml-redprl.git
If you have already cloned, then be sure to make sure all submodules are up to date, as follows:
git submodule update --init --recursive
Next, make sure that you have the MLton compiler for Standard ML installed. Then, simply run
./script/mlton.sh
Then, a binary will be placed in ./bin/redprl, which you may run as
follows
./bin/redprl example/README.prl
Editor Support: Vim
Our best-supported editor is currently Vim. See the RedPRL plugin under vim/.
