Hare documentation

The Hare standard library +x86_64 +linux

This is the Hare standard library reference documentation. For a guided introduction to the standard library, see the tutorial:

https://harelang.org/tutorials/stdlib

The standard library mandate states that the following services are provided:

An interface to the host operating system
Implementations of broadly useful algorithms
Implementations of broadly useful formats and protocols
Useful features to complement Hare language features
Introspective meta-features for Hare-aware programs
