Bend Utils is an unofficial repository that gathers a series of useful functions and types for developers using the Bend language. Instead of functioning as a package manager, users must manually copy the desired functions and types into their projects.

The repository is organized into directories, each containing related functions and types. Each function and type is in its own file to facilitate navigation and usage.

bend-utils/
├── List/
│   ├── concat.bend
│   ├── append.bend
├── Maybe/
│   ├── maybe.bend
├── Bool/
│   ├── bool.bend

To use the functions and types provided by Bend Utils, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the repository directory.
2. Find the function or type you want to use.
3. Copy the code of the function or type directly into your Bend project.

For example, if you want to use the concat function:

1. Open the List/concat.bend file.
2. Copy the concat function code.
3. Paste the code into the appropriate location in your Bend project.

Here is a list of the functions currently available in Bend Utils:

• concat(xs, ys): Concatenates two lists.

  def concat(xs, ys):
    match ys:
      case List/Nil:
        return xs
      case List/Cons:
        return concat(append(xs, ys.head), ys.tail)

• append(xs, x): Adds an element to the end of a list.

  def append(xs, x):
    match xs:
      case List/Nil:
        return List/Cons(x, List/Nil)
      case List/Cons:
        return List/Cons(xs.head, append(xs.tail, x))

Here are the types defined in Bend Utils:

• Maybe: Represents an optional value.

  type Maybe:
    None
    Some { value }

• Bool: Represents a boolean value.

  type Bool:
    true
    false
