Mathlib is a user maintained library for the Lean theorem prover. It contains both programming infrastructure and mathematics, as well as tactics that use the former and allow to develop the later.
You can find detailed instructions to install Lean, mathlib, and supporting tools:
- On Debian-derived Linux (Debian, Ubuntu, LMDE...)
- On other Linux distributions
- On MacOS
- On Windows
Besides the installation guides above and Lean's general documentation, the documentation of mathlib consists of:
- A description of currently covered theories, as well as an overview for mathematicians.
- A couple of tutorials
- Some extra Lean documentation not specific to mathlib
- A description of tactics introduced in mathlib, and available hole commands.
- Documentation for people who would like to contribute to mathlib
