Documents

Curated notes and deep dives. These are written as research artifacts: short, explicit claims; clear boundaries; and an honest “where we are now”.

Core reading

Document Focus Link
Semantic Core
core
A tiny meta-language for meaning: immutability, pure functions, branching, and composition. semantic-core.md
Function Registry
stability
Stable identity + immutable semantics once published. New versions are new functions. function-registry.md
Bridge Layer
runtime
Platform integration and “messy reality” (IO, concurrency, floats, OS/DB/GPU) live here. bridges.md
Contributing
community
How to propose spec changes, PR hygiene, and early-stage coding guidelines. CONTRIBUTING.md

Suggested reading order

  1. README (big picture and status)
  2. Semantic Core (what “meaning” is made of)
  3. Function Registry (how meaning stays stable)
  4. Bridges (where runtime complexity lives)

How to contribute

If you spot something unclear or disagree with a constraint, open an issue with a concrete question. For spec edits, start with discussion first; then a small PR that changes one thing.
