# What's this all about? | ||
|
||
`simple-actors` is a haskell eDSL for writing highly-structured concurrent | ||
programs based on the so-called | ||
[Actor Model](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actor_model). It provides a far | ||
more structured way of organizing concurrent code than ad-hoc use of `Chan`, | ||
`forkIO` and `MVar`s. | ||
|
||
The library was designed to make easy to implement message-passing algorithms | ||
and the like, but as I work on it and learn more about distributed computing, | ||
I'm hoping it can be used across the network eventually. | ||
|
||
# How do I do it? | ||
|
||
Install with a | ||
|
||
cabal install simple-actors | ||
|
||
and check out the docs [here](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/simple-actors). |
