Welcome to Axel: a purely functional, extensible, and powerful functional programming language!

Axel is in alpha (see the welcome blog post), so the language and documentation might change at any time.

NOTE Whenever you see a "Discussion" link, that means you can help shape the future of Axel! It'll link to a GitHub issue, and we'd love it if you'd chime in to the conversation and give your feedback.

If you're coming from Haskell and would like a tutorial, start at Introduction to Macros!

For a more thorough introduction, follow this sequence:
