Cultivar

Extensible TypeScript API services based on Promises and functional programming.

Idea

Handle requests from many different sources, and compose a response using many handlers.

Goals

• Portable: Should work with many different backends.
• Opinionated, but replaceable: Pieces should be able to be removed and substituted with other solutions without issue.
• Batteries-included: Should include a full toolkit to handle everyday API concerns.

Sources
