libfooso

Libfooso is an open-source software library that provides a modular collection of utilities for data processing, numerical computation, and I/O abstractions. The design emphasizes a clean, stable API, cross-language bindings, and a plugin-friendly architecture. The core library exposes a small set of core types and algorithms, while additional functionality is provided through optional modules that can be loaded at runtime.

Libfooso is maintained by a community-driven project with a governance model based on contributions, code reviews, and issue tracking. Releases follow semantic versioning. The project seeks to encourage portability across platforms including Linux, Windows, and macOS.

A modular core and plugins system; language bindings for Python and JavaScript are provided by official bindings teams, with community contributions for other languages. The library includes data structures, I/O abstractions, streaming interfaces, and a suite of numerical and utility functions.

Developers typically initialize the library, import modules, and instantiate core objects to perform tasks such as data parsing, transformation, and serialization. It supports extensible backends for file formats and networking.

Libfooso is released under an OSI-approved open-source license. It is generally praised for its clean API and performance characteristics, though documentation and ecosystem size vary by module.
