Blawx is a Blockly (think Scratch) visual coding interface wrapped around a constraint answer set programming declarative logic language [s(CASP)], targeted at generating legal knowledge representations that are exposed over an API to give reliable, transparent legal reasoning to agentic systems. As of last night, it's finally (6 years after I originally conceived of the idea) a SaaS product. If anyone is interested, the MVP is live at app.blawx.dev.

Yeah, there's a lot of CSS issues. Thanks for that, I'll add it to the list.

I'm back after 5 years 🙂 Should errors be discovered at compile time or run time? False dilemma! This video demos a prototype IDE which gives us the best of both worlds. youtu.be/zY8DlABDp58

Features:

  • The prototype will tell you about static type checking errors at compile time, but still let you run the program = less friction.
  • You can set a start line and run the code from that line forward.
  • Then as you inevitably encounter undefined variables, you can define their values live in the debugger.
  • Variable values from your previous run are saved for easy re-use.

You can play with the prototype at emilprogviz.com but better watch the video first.
