CRUBAL
CRUBAL is a language and engine for data about any kind of thing. Everything is a key and a value: records
are pairs, a facet's definition is pairs about a key, and rules, contracts, views and packages are pairs too.
The engine is universal at the kind level; commerce, media and the rest are packages that attach to kinds.

corpus/ | the conformance test corpus | CC-BY-4.0 |
packages/crubal/ | the reference implementation, @cruba/crubal (TypeScript first; a Rust core compiled to WebAssembly once the language freezes) | Apache-2.0 |
packages/crubal-postgres/ | the persistent store on Postgres: the log as the truth, every other table rebuilt from it (docs/design/store.md) | Apache-2.0 |
packages/crubal-host/ | the reference host: identity, secrets, adapters, signing, the loops and the HTTP surface (docs/design/host.md) | Apache-2.0 |
Status: the spec is a complete working draft. The reference implementation passes every conformance level, Reader through Views (87 corpus cases); it was built level by level
(Reader, Dictionary, Rules, Store, Exchange, Views); each level is done when its corpus folders pass.
The home of the core definitions and standard packages will be crubal.com.
