ReasBook is a Lean 4 project for formalizing mathematics from textbooks and research papers. It preserves the structure of the original references while producing machine-checkable statements and proofs. Browse the generated documentation and project catalog to explore the current collection.
Many ReasBook projects are initialized with M2F and then checked and refined in Lean. You can also try Quokka, the public automated formalization system for turning long-form mathematical literature into compilable Lean 4 projects.

main is the cross-version catalog. Source code stays on the registered
version branches; the lightweight link folders below make each entry
discoverable from this branch.
Registry status: Empty (not included in active releases) · Active
(accepting PRs and included in release planning) · Frozen (kept, no new
books) · Archived (historical only). Counts describe source directories and
therefore may be nonzero on an Empty branch.
Each directory in these indexes is a landing page for one book or paper. Open a directory and follow its prominent source link to the exact version branch and project folder.
- Books
- Papers
- Theorem dependency maps (the current Pages deployment contains TR-LALM)
ReasBook separates versioned mathematical sources from cross-version tooling and generated output:
| Path | Responsibility |
|---|---|
ReasBook/ |
Lean sources on their matching version branches |
ReasBookWeb/ |
Verso site shell and catalog generation |
sdk/ |
Reusable build, Verso, theorem-graph, comparator, and deployment APIs |
scripts/ |
Thin repository-specific build and Pages adapters |
config/ |
Toolchain registry, canonical versions, release profiles, and schemas |
Generated sites, Lake artifacts, logs, and release state live outside the checkout under the configured cache root. Git history contains source and configuration, not generated sites. The immutable release and rollback model is recorded in ADR-0001.
Use the project catalog or the tables below to choose a formalization. Each entry records its exact version branch, source directory, and available documentation. Follow the matching branch link when you need to inspect or check the Lean source.
For local development, documentation generation, comparison, and static-site deployment, use the focused SDK guide for the relevant capability:
| Capability | Guide |
|---|---|
| Lean build and reachable project documentation | Build SDK |
| Verso site and literate pages | Verso SDK · upstream Verso |
| Theorem dependency maps | Theorem graph SDK |
| Challenge/Solution comparison | Comparator SDK · upstream Comparator |
| Multi-stage deployment and release assembly | Deploy SDK |
See the relevant SDK guide for operational commands. The homepage focuses on the project catalog.

See CONTRIBUTING.md for the human-facing contribution procedure. Agent-assisted contributions can follow the ReasBook contributing skill, which encodes the branch, metadata, validation, and pull-request rules.
- Book and paper code lives on the registered version branch matching its Lean/mathlib toolchain; only registered stable
vX.Y.Zversions are accepted. - Book and paper code is not merged to
main.mainremains the cross-version catalog, while its link folders point to the corresponding version branches. - PR base, PR title version,
ReasBook/lean-toolchain, and book metadata (when applicable) must all match.
