TAB is a system for structuring information as things that are made from models defining attributes and behaviors.
Things with Attribute and Behaviors is essentially a server for a multi-user dimension focused on enabling users to create virtual objects and form relations between them, to enable a practice of vernacular autoethnosis.
Why might you care? Honestly, at this point, you probably only care if you have a personal connection to the project, such as being friends with emsenn
TAB is being written to run on Node.js. The "engine" is stored in ./tab.js, for now.
const tab = require('./tab');
const apple = tab.makeThing({name: "apple"});
console.log(apple.fullName());
// --> an apple./tab.js- holds the TAB engine../models/- holds the models that TAB makes into things (also where saved data goes, for now)./behaviors/- holds the methods that things can use once they're made
Software whose source code is freely & openly available to anyone allows for its use and development outside of its original context, which is necessary for the type of self-determined information management that TAB seeks to facilitate. Thus, it is released under the MIT license, which legally permits anyone to use or modify the software.
We encourage folk to share the modifications they've made back with us. New models, new behaviors, changes to what is already here. Check the Development Documentation.
