+- [x] the simple lambda calculus: implement `execute`
+- [ ] to lose my sanity: implement `parse`
+- [ ] bidirectional typechecking: implement `infer` and `check`
+- [ ] simple effects: extend `ast`
+- [ ] type classes: implement `monomorphize`
+- [ ] to be fancy: implement `parse_file`
+- [ ] extend to additional basic types: implement `cast`
+- [ ] extend to complex types
+- [ ] testtesttest

+## architecture

+```bash
+src/
+src/main.rs # the user facing program
+src/parser.rs # parses user programs into proper data structures
+src/ast.rs # the fundamental representation of the program
+src/simple.rs # the core of the lambda calculus: checking, inference, evaluation
+src/effects.rs # code for effects idk
+src/classes.rs # a monomorphization pass for type classes
+test/ # various tests
