Finitio - A Data Language

Finitio is a data language. For now, it is limited to a data definition language (DDL). Think "JSON/XML schema", but a slightly different way, that puts the emphasis on precision. Finitio comes with a dedicated type system for defining data and a theory, called information contracts, for interoperability with programming and data exchange languages.

Web site

www.finitio.io is built from website/, a statically generated Nuxt application. See website/README.md to run it locally.

The Dockerfile at the root builds that site and serves the result with nginx on port 4000; make image / make push-image / make redeploy drive the pipeline.
