Pulled from source
Every project’s docs are derived from its GitHub repository’s default branch. The README becomes the Overview; selected files (like a tutorial) become extra pages.
Wildloop?
A loose collection of fast, dependency-light building blocks for the web — small, sharp tools that each do one thing well, and happen to fit together.
What is this?
Section titled “What is this?”Wildloop is the home for a set of open-source projects by Frank van Viegen. They share a sensibility more than a framework: written in plain TypeScript (or Rust where it counts), fast, small, and built to lean on the platform instead of a tower of dependencies.
You can pick up any one of them on its own. But they also stack: a reactive UI (Aberdeen) with a component kit (Staffa), talking to a type-safe backend (Lowlander) over a blazing WebSocket layer (Warpsocket), persisting to fast storage (Edinburgh, OLMDB) — all deployed behind Webcentral.
Each project page below pulls its Overview straight from the repository’s README, often adds a Tutorial, and — where it applies — generates an API Reference from the source.
A quick tour
Section titled “A quick tour”Reactive UI
Backend, Data & Networking
Lowlander TypeScript framework for data persistence, type-safe RPCs and real-time (partial) client synchronization.
Edinburgh Very fast object persistence for TypeScript — optimistic transactions, lazy loading and indexes.
OLMDB Optimistic LMDB — a very fast embedded key/value store with ACID optimistic transactions.
Warpsocket Node-API addon for writing high-performance, multi-threaded WebSocket servers.
Languages & Tooling
TabScript Indentation-based compile-to-TypeScript language with syntax plugin support.
Typestripped Tiny, dependency-free library that transpiles (most) TypeScript to JavaScript in the browser.
Apps & Infrastructure
LightLynx Web app and extensions for Zigbee2MQTT — a polished, integrated light-automation solution.
Webcentral A reverse proxy that runs multiple web apps for multiple users on a single server — drop files in a folder and go.
How these docs work
Section titled “How these docs work”Generated reference
API reference pages are generated with TypeDoc directly from the TypeScript sources — including separate client- and server-side APIs where a project has both.
Always current
A GitHub webhook rebuilds the affected project whenever its main branch changes, so these pages track the code automatically.
Grouped by topic
Projects are organised into topics in the sidebar. The grouping lives in a single config file and is easy to reshape.
