# The Sophia smart contract language
This is the __sophia__ compiler which compiles contracts written in __sophia__ to [FATE](https://git.qpq.swiss/QPQ-AG/protocol/src/branch/master/contracts/fate.md) instructions.
The compiler is currently being used three places
- [The command line compiler](https://git.qpq.swiss/QPQ-AG/sophia_cli)
- [Desktop wallet](https://git.qpq.swiss/QPQ-AG/GajuDesk)
- In the [Gajumaru core node](https://git.qpq.swiss/QPQ-AG/gajumaru) tests

## Versioning
Versioning should follow the [semantic versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0) guidelines. Id est, given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the:
- MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes
- MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards compatible manner
- PATCH version when you make backwards compatible bug fixes
## Interface Modules
The basic modules for interfacing the compiler:
* [so_compiler: the Sophia compiler](docs/so_compiler.md)
* [so_aci: the ACI interface](docs/so_aci.md)
