Idris is a functional programming language with first-class types, which allow properties to be expressed in the type system, and with an interactive type-driven editor which allows programs to be developed as a formal conversation with the machine. In this talk I will introduce Idris and its type system, and cover recent developments in Idris 2. In particular, I will describe how the quantities in the type system give additional expressivity which allows us to implement state machines and communicating systems and verify their properties, interactively.
