A Rust-native, modular platform for Semantic Web, SPARQL 1.2, GraphQL, and AI-augmented reasoning

Status: Release Candidate (v0.1.0-rc.1) - Industrial Digital Twin Platform - Released December 2025

⚡ Release Candidate: API stability guaranteed. Feature complete for 1.0. Suitable for production use with comprehensive testing.

OxiRS aims to be a Rust-first, JVM-free alternative to Apache Jena + Fuseki and to Juniper, providing:

• Protocol choice, not lock-in: Expose both SPARQL 1.2 and GraphQL endpoints from the same dataset
• Incremental adoption: Each crate works stand-alone; opt into advanced features via Cargo features
• AI readiness: Native integration with vector search, graph embeddings, and LLM-augmented querying
• Single static binary: Match or exceed Jena/Fuseki feature-for-feature while keeping a <50MB footprint

# Install the CLI tool
cargo install oxirs --version 0.1.0-rc.1

# Or build from source
git clone https://github.com/cool-japan/oxirs.git
cd oxirs
cargo build --workspace --release
