Our goal is to make Nuru accessible to everyone, everywhere. By compiling the core Nuru interpreter to WebAssembly (WASM), we enable:
- Interactive Learning: Run Nuru code directly in your browser.
- Zero-Install Setup: No need to install Go or command-line tools to get started.
- Cross-Platform Compatibility: Use Nuru on any device with a modern web browser.
This repository is optimized as a monorepo utilizing pnpm workspaces and Turborepo for clean, scalable module federation. For an overview of our monorepo architecture, please refer to MONOREPO.md.
playground: The primary Nuru Playground. An interactive, modern Next.js 15 application that lets users write, execute, and learn Nuru interactively in Swahili and English.dashboard: The Educator Dashboard. A Next.js 15 administrative interface for educators to create, organize, and manage localized lessons and learning modules.
@nuru/wasm: The core compilation layer. Features the Nuru interpreter written in Go, compiled to WASM via TinyGo, paired with a type-safe TypeScript/React bridge.@nuru/db: The centralized data layer using Drizzle ORM to manage Postgres schemas and relationships for users, modules, and lessons.@nuru/ui: The shared design system and Tailwind CSS 4 components, keeping user interface design seamless and uniform across all our apps.
Whether you want to set up the development environment, contribute code, or author interactive lesson content, we have detailed guidelines prepared:
- Getting Started Locally: Setup prerequisites (Node.js 22, pnpm, Go, TinyGo) and start the local monorepo development pipeline.
- Contributing Lessons: A complete, step-by-step guide to writing and structuring interactive Nuru programming lessons in Swahili and English.
- Contributing Code: Standards, architecture conventions, and the Pull Request workflow for coding contributions.
