Introduction to Ada: a project-based exploration with rosettas

by Romain Gora – Sep 01, 2025. Discover Ada through a fun, project-based tutorial! Learn the language’s clarity, safety, and modern features while building an SVG rosetta generator. A fresh, visual way to explore Ada 2022.

While that platform takes a concept-based approach, I chose to complement it with a project-based method by developing a small, end-to-end Ada program that generates animated rosettas in the form of SVG files. Its strict compile-time checks, safety features, and clear structure make it particularly appealing when you need your software to be dependable from day one and still maintainable ten years later. It takes care of formatting the SVG structure (header, shapes, animations, and footer) and calls into the math logic defined in the Rosetta package to generate point data.
