Vincent Ambo e876c3a41c fix(tvix/value): KV struct needs to carry name as Value, too Users may construct a pair that falls into the name/value optimisation but where `name` is not actually a string, as from the language perspective there is nothing special about this attribute set. We also can not conditionally apply this by forcing the key at this point, as this would change the language semantics. Therefore, the name in the optimised representation is also carried as `Value`.

Tvix Evaluator

This project implements an interpreter for the Nix programming language.

The interpreter aims to be compatible with nixpkgs, on the foundation of Nix 2.3.

Work on this project is extremely in-progress, and the state of the project in the public repository may not necessarily reflect the state of the private codebase, as we are slowly working on publishing it.

We expect this to have caught up in a handful of weeks (as of 2022-08-12).

Please contact TVL with any questions you might have.

rnix-parser

Tvix is written in memory of jD91mZM2, the author of rnix-parser who sadly passed away.

Tvix makes heavy use of rnix-parser in its bytecode compiler. The parser is now maintained by Nix community members.
