Show HN: I made PeanoScript, an educational TypeScript-like theorem prover

Hi HN, I made this with the idea that many people are somewhat familiar with TypeScript and first-order logic, so combining them could be a nice introduction to automated theorem proving. My CS freshman logic class woefully lacked an interactive code environment

It's completely web-based so you can go ahead and try the interactive tutorial https://peanoscript.mjgrzymek.com/tutorial . Everything is explained on its own terms, so it should be readable if you just know programming.

If you already know this kind of stuff and want a tldr, there is also a reference https://peanoscript.mjgrzymek.com/reference and playground https://peanoscript.mjgrzymek.com/playground

The code is out on GitHub https://github.com/mjgrzymek/PeanoScript

Have fun!
