The standard library holds common tools. Use it before writing the same helper again.

let option := import "@std/option";
option.someOf[Int](8080)
  |> option.unwrapOr[Int](3000);

Option helpers, result helpers, text helpers, collection helpers, and test helpers keep code shorter and more familiar.

A standard library module is like a shared toolbox. You still choose the right tool, but you do not forge every tool yourself.

Import only what the file uses. A short import list keeps the file easy to scan.

Common imports

Use standard modules for common shapes.

let option := import "@std/option";
let result := import "@std/result";

option models missing values. result models success or failure. Text, collection, file, environment, and test helpers belong in standard modules instead of private copies.

Module handles

Keep module handles lowercase and boring.

let port := option.someOf[Int](8080);
let parsed := result.ok[Int, String](8080);

This keeps the type name (Option, Result) visually separate from the module handle (option, result).
