โœจ Key Features

๐Ÿ† Complete Quality Tools Suite (v1.20.0)

Professional-grade quality tools for enterprise development:

ruchy test - Native Test Runner

ruchy test tests/ --coverage --parallel --format=json
  • Native .ruchy file execution with comprehensive test discovery
  • Parallel test execution with timing and performance metrics
  • Coverage reporting (text, HTML, JSON) with threshold enforcement
  • CI/CD integration with proper exit codes and structured output
  • Watch mode for continuous testing during development

ruchy lint - Code Quality Analysis

ruchy lint src/ --fix --strict --format=json
  • Static analysis detecting unused code, style violations, complexity issues
  • Auto-fix functionality for formatting and simple refactoring
  • Security analysis for hardcoded secrets, SQL injection, unsafe patterns
  • Performance analysis for inefficient algorithms and memory usage
  • Configurable rules with team-wide consistency enforcement

ruchy prove - Mathematical Proof Verification

ruchy prove assertions.ruchy --check --counterexample --backend=z3
  • Formal verification of mathematical properties using SMT solvers
  • Assertion extraction from source code with automatic proof generation
  • Counterexample generation for false statements with concrete values
  • SMT solver integration (Z3, CVC5, Yices2) for different proof strategies
  • Interactive proof mode with tactics and goal management

ruchy score - Unified Quality Scoring

ruchy score . --deep --baseline=main --min=0.8
  • Comprehensive quality assessment across 6 dimensions (style, complexity, security, performance, docs, coverage)
  • A+ to F grading scale with detailed component breakdowns and improvement suggestions
  • Baseline comparison for tracking quality improvements over time
  • Multiple analysis depths from fast (<100ms) to deep (<30s) analysis
  • Team quality metrics with configurable weights and thresholds

๐ŸŽŠ Self-Hosting Capability

  • Bootstrap Compiler: Ruchy compiler written entirely in Ruchy
  • Direct Codegen: Transpiles to Rust with --minimal flag
  • Type Inference: Advanced Algorithm W with constraint solving
  • Complete Language: All constructs needed for compiler development

๐Ÿš€ Language Excellence

  • Pipeline Operator: data |> transform |> filter functional style
  • Pattern Matching: Complete with guards: x if x > 0 => "positive"
  • Both Lambda Syntaxes: |x| x + 1 and x => x + 1 supported
  • Module System: use, mod, and :: path resolution
  • Error Handling: Result/Option types with ? operator
  • HashMap/HashSet: Complete collections with all methods
  • String/Array Methods: 20+ methods each for comprehensive manipulation

๐Ÿ“Š Toyota Way Quality Engineering

  • 87.80% Test Coverage: Mathematical verification of correctness
  • 374 Tests Passing: Unit, integration, CLI, property, and fuzz tests
  • Zero-Warning Build: Complete clippy compliance (-D warnings)
  • Mathematical Properties: Idempotency, determinism formally verified
  • Automated Quality Gates: Pre-commit hooks prevent regressions

๐Ÿ’ป Interactive REPL

  • Resource-bounded: Memory limits, timeouts, stack protection
  • Syntax highlighting: Real-time colored output
  • Tab completion: Context-aware completions
  • Persistent history: Cross-session command storage
  • Multiline editing: Automatic continuation detection

Example Code

// Self-hosting compiler capabilities
fun parse_expr(tokens: Vec<Token>) -> Result<Expr, ParseError> {
    match tokens.first() {
        Some(Token::Number(n)) => Ok(Expr::Literal(*n)),
        Some(Token::Ident(name)) => Ok(Expr::Variable(name.clone())),
        _ => Err(ParseError::UnexpectedToken)
    }
}

// Functional programming with pipeline operator  
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
  |> numbers.map(|x| x * 2)
  |> numbers.filter(|x| x > 5)
  |> numbers.sum()

// Pattern matching with guards
match user_input {
    n if n > 0 => "positive",
    0 => "zero",
    1..=10 => "small range",
    _ => "other"
}

// HashMap collections
let mut map = HashMap()
map.insert("key", "value")
map.get("key").unwrap()
