|
|
|
|
Idris 2 is built using Idris, and provides support for three default code
|
|
|
|
|
generation targets: Chez, Chicken, and Racket. It currently requires the
|
|
|
|
|
(not yet released) latest Idris master.
|
|
|

|
## Idris

## Code Generation Targets
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Only one of these is absolutely necessary, and you can type check code even
|
|
|
|
|
with none of them installed. The default code generator targets Chez Scheme.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Chez
