About this repo

Bondi is a (semi open sourced?) server-side javascript language based on Mozilla's javascript engine that compiles and runs .esp file. Bondi offers an extensive Javascript library of specialised classes that provides advanced features. Some of the most prominently used libraries are as listed below:

• TemplateEngine allows rendering the user interface on the backend, with the added ability of attaching sqlite documents, variables and more.
• HTTPClient and FastCGIClient allows making HTTP requests to external endpoints or FastCGI requests to internal servers (projects).
• Server provides various process handling features including making synchronous or asynchronous processes and importing, executing or transferring to additional scripts.
• DBConnection allows database connection to sqlite3 databases including merchant databases, marketplace databases and metadata databases.
