About

"A collection of functional programming libraries that can be composed together. Unlike a framework, thi.ng is a suite of instruments and you (the user) must be the composer of. Geared towards versatility, not any specific type of music." — @loganpowell via Twitter

Mono-repository for 138+ thi.ng TypeScript/ES6 projects, a wide collection of largely data transformation oriented packages and building blocks for:

• Functional programming (composition, memoization, transducers, multi-methods)
• Data driven UI component toolkits (multiple approaches)
• ES6 iterators/generators
• Reactive programming, stream / transducer based dataflow graphs / pipelines
• WebWorker workflow abstractions
• 2D geometry generation, shape primitives, processing, conversion & visualization
• Canvas abstraction & SVG conversion
• Semi-declarative WebGL 1/2 abstraction layer
• DSL for shader functions defined in TypeScript and cross-compilation to GLSL, JS, VEX etc.
• Date/time iterators, formatters
• Data structures & data transformations for wide range of use cases (list, sets, maps, joins, spatial indexing)
• Immutable data handling, state containers, transacted state updates, Undo-Redo history
• Vector & matrix implementations with optional support for strided layouts, SIMD etc.
• Value-based equivalence
• PEG-style parser combinators, FSM primitives
• Forth-style pointfree DSL for functional composition
• S-expression parser & runtime infrastructure for custom DSL creation
• Multi-format pixel buffers, conversions, Porter-Duff alpha-blending operators
• Color space/format conversions, matrix based color manipulation, cosine gradients
• Canvas-based Immediate mode GUI components
• Low-level tooling for binary data, shared memory/WASM/WebGL interop
• etc. (see package overview below)

...all with a keen eye on simplicity, re-use & minimalism without sacrificing flexibility.

This project is NOT a framework, provides no turn-key, one-size-fits-all approach and instead encourages a mix & match philosophy for various key aspects of application design (in & outside the browser). Most customization points only expect certain interfaces/type signatures rather than concrete implementations.

All packages:

• are versioned independently
• distributed in ES2017 syntax and multiple formats (ESM, CommonJS, UMD) with TypeScript typings & change logs
• highly modular with largely only a few closely related functions or single function / class per file to help w/ tree shaking
• provide re-exports of all their publics for full library imports
• have either none or only @thi.ng internal runtime dependencies
• declare public interfaces, enums & types in an api.ts and/or constants.ts file (larger packages only)
• have auto-generated online documentation at docs.thi.ng
• licensed under Apache Software License 2.0

Most packages:

• have been used in production
• have detailed, individual README files w/ small usage examples

Examples

There's a steadily growing number (~100) of standalone examples (different complexities, often combining functionality from several packages) in the examples directory.

Building

git clone https://github.com/thi-ng/umbrella.git
cd umbrella

yarn install
yarn build

Once the entire mono-repo has been fully built at least once before, individual packages can then be (re)built like so:

lerna run build --scope @thi.ng/transducers

Building example projects

Please see the example build instructions in the wiki for further details.

Testing

(most, but not all packages have tests)

yarn test

# or individually
lerna run test --scope @thi.ng/rstream

Coverage

The resulting reports will be saved under /packages/*/coverage/lcov-report/.

yarn cover

Documentation

Autogenerated documentation (using TypeDoc) will be saved under /packages/*/doc/ and is also available at docs.thi.ng.
