typocomath

A final (?) prototype for a refactor of mathjs, culminating the picomath, pocomath, typomath series. Provides an extensible core with "fuzzy" types for its operations, that can at any time generate exact .d.ts file for its current state.

To build and run the prototype, run:

pnpm install
pnpm build-and-run

experiment

See: the section under /src/experiment and /src/plugins.

The idea

Create a TypeScript plugin which can replace structures like:

infer(factoryFunction)

where factoryFunction is a mathjs factory function in TypeScript, with something like:

infer({ signature: factoryFunction })

where signature is a string containing the type of the factory function and its dependencies.

Relevant methods of the TypeScript compiler are:

const program = ts.createProgram(fileNames, options)
const typeChecker = program.getTypeChecker()

// relevant methods:
//
//   typeChecker.getSymbolAtLocation
//   typeChecker.getTypeOfSymbolAtLocation
//   typeChecker.getResolvedSignature
//   typeChecker.getSignaturesOfType

Status

None of the experiments (infer1 and infer2) are outputting something useful yet.

How to run

pnpm experiment:infer1
pnpm experiment:infer1-direct
pnpm experiment:infer2
pnpm experiment:infer3
pnpm experiment:infer4
