| Hi folks!
|
| Author of C3T here! [1] This is very much a work in progress
| project focused on creating accessible materials on Category
| Theory to get started, fast! My perspective comes from a non-
| maths background and making this approachable for folks in
| similar positions but are curious about what Category Theory is.
|
| The website is made using Literate Programming tools [2, 3, 4]
| and utilizes both the Julia and Haskell programming language.
| Currently, I am working on putting together notes for the
| following resources:
|
| 1. Category Theory for Programmers by Bartosz Milewski
|
| 2. Category Theory for the Science by David Spivak
|
| 3. Catlab.jl: https://github.com/AlgebraicJulia/Catlab.jl
|
| 4. Semagrams.jl: https://github.com/AlgebraicJulia/Semagrams.jl
|
| Feel free to star or follow this repository here:
| https://github.com/TheCedarPrince/C3T To keep track of what
| happens to it.
|
| Please open issues, suggestions or thoughts on it!

| I highly recommend "Evan Patterson: Realizing Applied Category
| Theory in Julia"[0]
|
| It's an intro to Catlab.jl with motivations.

| Hey earley!
|
| I work with Evan - his stuff is great. :) This was designed to
| give more of a hands-on approach to category theory with the
| idea of Catlab.jl being used where applicable.
