FPL (Formal Proving Language)

FPL, the Formal Proving Language, is a language to formulate mathematical definitions, theorems, and proofs independently of local natural languages.

This extension enables you to make use of advantages of an IDE like VS Code while writing code in FPL.

This is a Proof of Concept of a private research project to develop such a language. For more information or code examples, see https://github.com/bookofproofs/fpl.net. In this repository, you will also find the source code for this extension.

Features

  • Syntax highlighting for .fpl files.
  • (Syntax-driven) error diagnostics service (experimental)
  • (Syntax-driven) code-completion service with various code snippets
  • FPL support for user-defined prefix, postfix, and infix notation for mathematical operators in expressions.
  • (Semantical) error diagnostics (as of now, mainly related to scope issues and unknown identifier issues)
  • Symbol table navigation tree view

There is also an FPL Channel on YouTube devoted to the language.
