Type Theory as a Language Workbench

Authors: Jan de Muijnck-Hughes, Guillaume Allais, and Edwin Brady

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 109, Eelco Visser Commemorative Symposium (EVCS 2023)


Abstract
Language Workbenches offer language designers an expressive environment in which to create their Domain Specific Languages (DSLs). Similarly, research into mechanised meta-theory has shown how dependently typed languages provide expressive environments to formalise and study DSLs and their meta-theoretical properties. But can we claim that dependently typed languages qualify as language workbenches? We argue yes! We have developed an exemplar DSL called Vélo that showcases not only dependently typed techniques to realise and manipulate Intermediate Representations (IRs), but that dependently typed languages make fine language workbenches. Vélo is a simple verified language with well-typed holes and comes with a complete compiler pipeline: parser, elaborator, REPL, evaluator, and compiler passes. Specifically, we describe our design choices for well-typed IR design that includes support for well-typed holes, how CSE is achieved in a well-typed setting, and how the mechanised type-soundness proof for Vélo is the source of the evaluator.

Artifact
Idris 2: Quantitative Type Theory in Practice (Artifact)

Authors: Edwin Brady

Published in: DARTS, Volume 7, Issue 2, Special Issue of the 35th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2021)


Abstract
Dependent types allow us to express precisely what a function is intended to do. Recent work on Quantitative Type Theory (QTT) extends dependent type systems with linearity, also allowing precision in expressing when a function can run. This is promising, because it suggests the ability to design and reason about resource usage protocols, such as we might find in distributed and concurrent programming, where the state of a communication channel changes throughout program execution. Idris 2 is a new version of Idris, implemented in itself, and based on Quantitative Type Theory. The paper introduces Idris 2 and describes how QTT has influenced its design, as well as giving several examples of how to use QTT in practice. The artifact, correspondingly, provides an implementation of Idris 2, running on a virtual machine, along with runnable examples from the paper. This document explains how to install the artifact, how to run the examples, and suggests some small ways to experiment with and modify the examples.

Idris 2: Quantitative Type Theory in Practice

Authors: Edwin Brady

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 194, 35th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2021)


Abstract
Dependent types allow us to express precisely what a function is intended to do. Recent work on Quantitative Type Theory (QTT) extends dependent type systems with linearity, also allowing precision in expressing when a function can run. This is promising, because it suggests the ability to design and reason about resource usage protocols, such as we might find in distributed and concurrent programming, where the state of a communication channel changes throughout program execution. As yet, however, there has not been a full-scale programming language with which to experiment with these ideas. Idris 2 is a new version of the dependently typed language Idris, with a new core language based on QTT, supporting linear and dependent types. In this paper, we introduce Idris 2, and describe how QTT has influenced its design. We give examples of the benefits of QTT in practice including: expressing which data is erased at run time, at the type level; and, resource tracking in the type system leading to type-safe concurrent programming with session types.

Artifact
A Framework for Resource Dependent EDSLs in a Dependently Typed Language (Artifact)

Authors: Jan de Muijnck-Hughes, Edwin Brady, and Wim Vanderbauwhede

Published in: DARTS, Volume 6, Issue 2, Special Issue of the 34th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2020)


Abstract
Idris' Effects library demonstrates how to embed resource dependent algebraic effect handlers into a dependently typed host language, providing run-time and compile-time based reasoning on type-level resources. Building upon this work, Resources is a framework for realising Embedded Domain Specific Languages (EDSLs) with type systems that contain domain specific substructural properties. Differing from Effects, Resources allows a language’s substructural properties to be encoded within type-level resources that are associated with language variables. Such an association allows for multiple effect instances to be reasoned about autonomically and without explicit type-level declaration. Type-level predicates are used as proof that the language’s substructural properties hold. Several exemplar EDSLs are presented that illustrates our framework’s operation and how dependent types provide correctness-by-construction guarantees that substructural properties of written programs hold.
