Line 1: __NOTOC__ This is the wiki for [https://triplescripts.org triplescripts.org] — committed to software tooling for the out-crowd. To learn more about triple scripts and the triple scripts ecosystem, check the existing material on triplescripts.org, have a look at [[the why and how of triple scripts]], or read on. == Applications == Line 10: * auditable, offline software security fobs * file format decompressors, explorers, manipulators, etc * ... and other utilities that perform limited ~~file~~ IO; (particularly suited for ~~many~~one or more file inputs, with zero or one file outputs, in the vein of programming language compilers or [[filters]]) What triple scripts are not suited for: * networked applications * applications for communicating with peripheral devices * ... and many, many other classes of traditional system software "<q>''Triple scripts are for everyone, but [[not]] for all things"''</q>. (See other [[mantras]].)▼ ~~== Participating ==~~ == More information == ~~Why should you participate in triplescripts.org?:~~ * triplescripts.org cares about software longevity * most accessible software stack in the world * greenfield module ecosystem This wiki was started in June 2020, and at this time it remains fairly sparse. To get a clearer picture of what this is all <em>about</em>, you can find pertinent info on the following pages: * [[ABCs of triple scripts]] ~~Who shouldn't participate in triplescripts.org?:~~ * [[Build Manifesto]] * people who think minification is an acceptable compromise * [[Gestalt of Smalltalk]] * people whose foremost concern is making the GitHub contribution graph light up green and their npm package rosters look full * [[This is not JavaScript]] * people who are enamored with the NodeJS and NPM ecosystems in general * [[Dialect]] * [[SDIPD]] * [[File format]] ... and other terms listed in the [[glossary]]. ▲"Triple scripts are for everyone, but not for all things" For those completely unacquainted with triple scripts and triple script development, please pay special attention to [https://triplescripts.org/invariants the triple script invariants]. Given their importance, we'll repeat them here: we say that '''triple scripts are'''... * '''self-contained''' * '''homologous''' * '''automorphic'''
