Scryer Prolog is a modern, ISO-compliant Prolog interpreter written mostly in Rust, built on a Warren Abstract Machine implementation. It aims to be an industrial-strength production Prolog environment that also serves as a testbed for research in logic and constraint programming.

Use cases

  • run ISO Prolog programs
  • learn logic programming with a standards-compliant Prolog
  • experiment with constraint and logic programming research
  • embed a Prolog interpreter in Rust projects
  • study Warren Abstract Machine implementation
  • use tabling and delimited continuations in Prolog

When to choose

  • you need strict ISO Prolog standard compliance
  • you want a modern Prolog implementation written in a safe language
  • you need advanced features like tabling, attributed variables, or delimited continuations
  • you want a self-contained Prolog system installable via cargo

When to avoid

  • you need mature ecosystem features like large libraries or GUI tooling
  • you require interfaces specific to SWI-Prolog or SICStus
  • you need a long-established production Prolog with decades of hardening
