Abstract: We present a general framework for the rigorous numerical analysis of time-fractional nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations, with a fractional derivative of order $alphain(0,1)$ in time. The framework relies on three technical tools: a fractional version of the discrete Gr"onwall-type inequality, discrete maximal regularity, and regularity theory of nonlinear equations. We establish a general criterion for showing the fractional discrete Gr"onwall inequality, and verify it for the L1 scheme and convolution quadrature generated by BDFs. Further, we provide a complete solution theory, e.g., existence, uniqueness and regularity, for a time-fractional diffusion equation with a Lipschitz nonlinear source term. Together with the known results of discrete maximal regularity, we derive pointwise $L^2(Omega)$ norm error estimates for semidiscrete Galerkin finite element solutions and fully discrete solutions, which are of order $O(h^2)$ (up to a logarithmic factor) and $O(a{u}^{a}lpha)$, respectively, without any extra regularity assumption on the solution or compatibility condition on the problem data. The sharpness of the convergence rates is supported by the numerical experiments.
