Project Mentat is a persistent, embedded knowledge base. It draws heavily on [DataScript](https://github.com/tonsky/datascript) and [Datomic](http://datomic.com). Project Mentat is a persistent, embedded knowledge base. It draws heavily on [DataScript](https://github.com/tonsky/datascript) and [Datomic](http://datomic.com).
The first version of Project Mentat, named Datomish, [was written in ClojureScript](https://github.com/mozilla/mentat/tree/master), targeting both Node (on top of `promise_sqlite`) and Firefox (on top of `Sqlite.jsm`). It also works in pure Clojure on the JVM on top of `jdbc-sqlite`. The name was changed to avoid confusion with [Datomic](http://datomic.com). Mentat is implemented in Rust.
This branch is for rewriting Mentat in Rust, giving us a smaller compiled output, better performance, more type safety, better tooling, and easier deployment into Firefox and mobile platforms.
