HowDone Core is the reusable engine behind HowDone. It is a library for projects that want to use the progress model and application contracts without installing the command-line product.

What you get

The package exports the framework-independent Core API from howdone, the standard dependency-free AST parser implementation from howdone/std, and the port-driven application from howdone/application. It has no CLI bin and no runtime adapter dependencies.

Use it in another project

import { run } from "howdone/application";

const status = await run(argv, io, dependencies);

The consumer supplies the external filesystem, Markdown, YAML/TOML, and output Ports. It may use TypedAstParser from howdone/std for the parser Port or replace that Port with its own implementation. Other external Ports are provided by the composing application.

Need the command line?

This is the primary product. It provides the howdone and howdone-cli commands.
