dilek — Turkish for a wish.

This is where you ask for the next zero-dependency TypeScript library.

I maintain a set of libraries
that install without pulling anything else in behind them: spreadsheets,
barcodes, HTTP clients, SQL builders, printer languages, lightboxes. This repo
decides what the next one is.

How it works

1. Ask. Open an issue describing the library you
   want. One library per issue.
2. Vote. Add a 👍 to any issue you also want. Reactions are the vote — a
   comment saying “+1” is not counted.
3. I build. I take the most wanted one that I can actually do well, and it
   ships with no dependencies like the rest.

Sorting by 👍 shows the current standing:
most wanted.

What makes a good request

The libraries here exist because something was heavier than it needed to be. A
good request names that: the thing you tried, what it dragged in, and what you
wish existed instead.

Requests I am unlikely to take: wrappers around an existing SDK, anything that
needs a server I would have to run, and anything I would have to keep in step
with a moving proprietary API.

Paying for it

Each library takes weeks of evenings. If one of them saved you some, you can
sponsor the work. Sponsors do not
get to skip the queue, but they do keep the queue moving.
