Datalog Engine in miniKanren and WebAssembly
2025-06-15
This article details a Datalog engine built using Scheme and the miniKanren library, running in the browser via WebAssembly. The engine implements core Datalog features: fact assertion, rule definition, and fixpoint iteration. The author thoroughly explains the implementation details of data structures, indexing mechanisms, and rule application, providing a graph traversal example. This project demonstrates the potential of functional and logical programming techniques for building efficient database systems, leveraging WebAssembly for cross-platform execution.
