Introduction

This is a helper library for rapid prototyping in GHCi sessions. It provides hot-reloadable background threads as well as values that can be reused across module reloads (to save initialisation time). Main use cases include the development of long-running applications, especially those with multiple separable units: servers, web applications, interactive user interfaces, etc.

A tutorial-style introduction is contained within the Rapid module.
