The art of doing mathematics consists in finding that special case which contains all the germs of generality.

Axioms is a library of small composable functions, providing functional programming functionality to regular typescript code.

Writing typesafe code shouldn't be hard. However, writing generic functions to do so is. Axioms do the hard work for you. The library is entirely tree shakeable and small as we can make it.

Install Axioms using npm:

 $ npm install @zefiros-software/axioms

In no particular order, the following libraries try to solve similar problems (albeit very different):

• Lodash; works very well but defines a more polymorphic interface than we'd like. Also, tree-shaking is difficult without using different versions of this library.
• Rambda
• The list goes on...

PR's are very welcome if you think your project is missing here.

Axioms define a very opinionated interface and aren't shy about it. Not everyone will like this. Although the library is tested, picking a more used alternative will provide more stability. The current implementation is a WIP; interfaces might change. Functions may get removed if they do not provide enough use. We aim to make every function to be replaceable by a lot of alternatives readily available, but we cannot guarantee this.
