Kami

Choreography programming language integrated with the Rust ecosystem

Kami is a new programming language, based on the Rust ecosystem, designed from the ground up for correct-by-construction distributed systems. In its core it is pure and functional, thus ideal for building complex concurrent systems. It takes cues from multiparty session types and choreographic programming language research: The behaviour of all roles in a distributed application can be implemented at once from a global point of view. This high-level description is compiled to rust code for all participating roles, with the guarantee that the system will be deadlock-free. Developers can seamlessly drop down to using rust, and all of its ecosystem, for writing local code, while using Kami for composing the local computations into a coherent distributed system. In this project we implement the type-checker, compiler and other developer tools for Kami, to provide for a similarly friendly developer experience as Rust.
