lateralus-stdlib

The Lateralus standard library. Zero dependencies outside the compiler itself.

Installing

Shipped with the Lateralus compiler — no separate install. Every module is in scope as std::<module> from any Lateralus source file.

import std::net::tcp
import std::crypto::{hmac, sha256}
import std::time::{tz, Duration}

This repo

This is the authoritative source tree for the standard library. Changes here are mirrored into the lateralus-lang monorepo under stdlib/ on every release.

Policy

• Zero runtime dependencies. Only what ships with the compiler.
• Pipeline-first. Every module that processes data exposes functions that compose via |>.
• Exhaustive errors. Every fallible function returns Result<T, E> where E is a closed enum — no open exception hierarchies.
• No hidden allocation. Iterators are lazy. Collections are explicit.
• Deterministic. Iteration order is specified for every container.

Status

• Stable: collections, io, net::tcp, net::http, crypto, encoding::json, encoding::base64, bin, time (UTC).
• Beta: time::tz, net::tls, net::dns, compress, sync.
• Experimental: test::arbitrary, compiler::*, ast::*.
