Juvix is an open-source, constantly evolving functional programming language designed for writing privacy-preserving decentralized applications. Using Juvix, developers can write high-level programs which can be compiled to WASM directly, or through VampIR to circuits for private execution with Taiga on Anoma or Ethereum.
Getting Started
To get started with Juvix, head over to the documentation website to learn more about the language and its features. You can also find installation instructions and tutorials to help you get started with writing Juvix programs. You can download the latest release from the Juvix GitHub repository or use the web-based development environment, Juvix Github Codespace, which provides a pre-configured workspace ready to use with Juvix and the Haskell toolchain installed.
Language features
Juvix is designed with a focus on safety. The Juvix compiler runs several static analyses which guarantee the absence of runtime errors. Analyses performed include termination and type checking. As a result, functional programs, especially validity predicates, can be written with greater confidence in their correctness.
Some language features in Juvix include:
- Haskell/Agda-like syntax with support for Unicode
- Type inference
- Parametric polymorphism
- User defined inductive data types
- Higher-order functions
- Referential transparency
The Juvix module system allows developers to break down their programs into smaller, reusable modules that can be compiled separately and combined to create larger programs. These modules can be used to build libraries, which can then be documented using Juvix's built-in documentation generation tool, see for example, the Juvix standard library's website. For further details, please refer to the Juvix book which includes our latest updates.
