Getting started

Jazz can check a source file without running it or evaluate the program and print its final value. It can also start from a named module and resolve that module's dependencies.

After installing Jazz, run a program whose value is text:

"Hello, Jazz".

cabal run jazz -- --run examples/hello.jz

The interpreter prints the value, including the quotes that identify it as text:

"Hello, Jazz"
