Who are you? #69

And what are the objectives behind this list (different from the definition of a micro library.)

I.e. is it good code to read, best libraries in each class, encouragement to make libs smaller? pedagogical? Just wondering.

This project tries to gather small libraries that can be easily used as a foundation for building higher-level frameworks. It is a curated list where projects must meet specific criteria (small size, solving one core problem, no monkey-patching, no active-support etc.).

So far we only managed to start listing things but eventually the project is supposed to help people in finding, developing and contributing to small libraries that IMO should be the backbone of the ruby ecosystem. Apart from micro libraries we could also start gathering frameworks that are built on top of those libraries.

Sorry for being so slow with the answer :/
