Rascal - GettingStarted

After you have installed Rascal using EclipseUpdate, you might be interested in the first steps to executing some Rascal code.

  1. Open the Rascal Perspective (use the "Open Perspective" button in the top-right of your screen)
  2. Create a new Rascal project (use the "New..." button in the top-left of your screen, then select "Rascal Project" from the menu)
  3. Open a context menu on the project (right-click) and select "Launch Console"
  4. Type "1 + 1" after the "rascal>" prompt to see "2" wink

Tips:

  • Check out the Documentation
  • Modify the font of the Rascal Editor in the Preferences menu of Eclipse, at "IMP->Source font"
  • Modify the font of the Rascal console in the Preferences menu of Eclipse, at "General->Appearance->Colors and Fonts->Basic->Text Font"
