About

EGG is a program to manipulate existential graphs, an alternative graphical approach to classical logic. While writable on paper, existential graphs really need a way of visualizing a step-by-step history of valid rules and inferences.

Existing software

There was an appspot site for it, but it was (in my honest opinion) pretty terrible (in terms of UI and usability). I can't find the link to it at the moment, but it's out there somewhere.

Tech

EGG is written in Qt C++ and will be released under the MIT license.

End Product

By the end of development, we hope to have a nice intuitive interface with features that allow rapid development and modifications to existential graphs. We have some basic components to develop: a graphical view, a backend tree-based structure, and a history stack to track the moves made. We also want to have some kind of premise/goal management, to allow users to follow some kind of guideline to see if their arguments are valid or invalid.
