Description
Juvix is an advanced, functional programming language tailored for the creation of smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps) across various blockchain platforms. It integrates a safer design for smart contracts and dApps through the use of formal verification methods and a dependent type system, aiming to mitigate common security issues and enhance efficiency. Juvix automates optimization processes to lessen the risk of bugs and security flaws significantly. It combines a high-level frontend syntax with a dependent-linearly-typed core language and a whole-program optimization system, all within a backend-swappable execution model. This architecture allows for the development of formally verifiable, efficiently executable smart contracts deployable on multiple distributed ledgers. Juvix addresses key challenges observed in the decentralised ecosystem, including verification difficulties, compositional complexity, execution cost clarity, and backend lock-in, by leveraging extensive academic research in programming language design and type theory. Its compiler is specifically designed for smart contracts, prioritizing behavioural verifiability, semantic precision, and...
