Collection of general purpose tools for solving problems. Fundamentally extend the language without spoiling, so may be used solely or in conjunction with another module of such kind.

Class to resolve tree-like data structures with links or paths in the structure. Use the module to resolve template or path to value.

Class to resolve tree-like data structures with links or paths in the structure. TemplateTreeEnvironment extends TemplateTreeResolver to been able to resolve paths into a files system. Use the module to resolve template or path to value.

Class to log data consistently which supports colorful formatting, verbosity control, chaining, combining several loggers/consoles into logging network. Logger provides 10 levels of verbosity [ 0,9 ] any value beyond clamped and multiple approaches to control verbosity. Logger may use console/stream/process/file as input or output. Unlike alternatives, colorful formatting is cross-platform and works similarly in the browser and on the server side. Use the module to make your diagnostic code working on any platform you work with and to been able to redirect your output to/from any destination/source.

Collection of classes to abstract files systems. Many interfaces provide files, but not called as file systems and treated differently. For example server-side gives access to local files and browser-side HTTP/HTTPS protocol gives access to files as well, but in the very different way, it does the first. This problem forces a developer to break fundamental programming principle DRY and make code written to solve a problem not applicable to the same problem, on another platform/technology. Files treats any file-system-like interface as files system. Files combines all files available to the application into the single namespace where each file has unique Path/URI, so that operating with several files on different files systems is not what user of the module should worry about. If Files does not have an adapter for your files system you may design it providing a short list of stupid methods fulfilling completely or partly good defined API and get access to all sophisticated general algorithms on files for free. Is concept of file applicable to external entities of an application? Files makes possible to treat internals of a program as files system(s). Use the module to keep DRY.

Framework for convenient unit testing. Testing provides the intuitive interface, simple tests structure, asynchronous code handling mechanism, colorful report, verbosity control and more. Use the module to get free of routines which can be automated.
