I feel like this was written because it solved someone's problem, but I can't quite figure out what, or if it would solve any of my problems. What is this for?

What is this for? Talking to a REST API? Serializing and de-serializing data? Acting as an in-memory DB? What library does it compete with?

- ignoreintuition 9y agoReading through some of these comments I agree: It is probably a good idea to add in a 'why to use' section on the repo. The purpose behind this was that I found it cumbersome to work with dataets in JavaScript so this framework lets you pull them into a schema that has metadata to handle relationships between tables, aggregation methods, sorting and filtering. As for competing frameworks: I have seen some of this in other larger frameworks but I build this out so I can work with data in JS without pulling in monolithic data visualization libraries.
