The Shen Education Channel
You can learn about Shen on the Shen Computer Science Education Channel on Youtube
which opened in June 2022. A repository for all the code in these video is kept
here.
Fast Help
Look at Shen in 15 minutes for a quick
learning guide and then reference the OS Shen Manual in the side bar. Go to our
newsgroup if you get stuck.
The Open Source Manual
This is detailed in the side bar.
Shen/tk
This is a fully type-secure graphical concurrent extension of Shen using TCL/tk incorporating an IDE.
You can find the download here and a Windows executable
here.
We recommend installing TCL from ActiveTCL. A support page explaining Shen/tk graphics is given
here. There are two education videos
in the Shen Education Channel - the first
explains the IDE and the second explains how
to customise the IDE by programming in Shen/tk.
Books
The Book of Shen gives the complete introduction to the language. You can also read this text
online.
If your logic needs a brush-up, get
Logic, Proof and Computation
to learn the logical theory behind Shen and how sequent calculus works.
The Standard Library
The Standard Library is now documented online and can be read
here.

The Shendoc webpage is useful as a language standard for those porting Shen.
It is a developer's guide rather than a resource for learning Shen.

There is an old interactive
Javascript page of the Shen REPL.
