jsonschema.lean -- an implementation of JSON Schema in Lean
Brief Description
Lean is an extremely interesting and up and coming programming language created by Leo de Moura (formerly at Microsoft Research, now at Amazon) and his team. It is an "interactive theorem prover", though for our purposes what it offers is in short an ability to write a piece of software and then have the ability to formally prove properties of the software that you've written, all within the language itself ("software verification").
Let's write an implementation of JSON Schema in Lean!
Why? Here are some reasons:
because every language needs a JSON Schema implementation, and Lean doesn't yet have one!
having an implementation in Lean would enable work on formal verification! This would enable us or others to formally prove theorems about JSON Schema within our implementation
it will probably be fun! Lean is a relatively young language, so we'll be able to "kick its tires" a bit
Expected Outcomes
A new repository containing a new Lean JSON Schema implementation, with as many keywords implemented as we have time for for a single dialect of JSON Schema
