Equis
A programming language that understands REA accounting
What it does
Equis is a compiled systems language that embeds REA (Resource-Event-Agent) accounting semantics directly into its compiler. Declare agents, resources, and events as language primitives. The compiler verifies balanced transactions, role-based access, and contract fulfillment before your code can run. Self-hosted compiler, LLVM backend, cross-platform (Linux/macOS/Windows), with a standard library that includes fixed-point math, JSON, PostgreSQL bindings, and cooperative concurrency.
