Coq
- There are two ways to install Coq (Version 8.11).
- Linux/OSX: Install Coq via the the OCaml package manager opam.
- Windows: Download the Windows installer from the release page.
- There are two user interfaces for Coq: CoqIDE and Proof General. You can choose which one you want to use.
- CoqIDE: You can download and install CoqIDE along with the rest of Coq via opam and it is included in the Windows installer. Documentation about CoqIDE can be found here.
- Proof General: Proof General is an emacs mode that supports many theorem provers, including Coq. Using Proof General, Company Coq is an extension allowing you to look up lemmas and the Coq Documentation. Both Proof General and Company Coq can be installed via the emacs package archive melpa.
- Coq Documentation
- An online book on software foundations starting with an introduction to Coq
(by Benjamin Pierce and others) - A book on certified programming with dependent types using Coq
(by Adam Chlipala)
