Contributing to proc

This section contains documentation for maintainers and contributors to the proc library.

Overview

The proc library provides a fluent API for running child processes and working with async iterables in Deno. It emphasizes composable operations, automatic resource cleanup, and proper error propagation.

Key Goals:

• Composable operations via method chaining
• Automatic resource cleanup (no leaked processes)
• Proper error propagation from stderr
• AsyncIterable streams (easier than manual stream handling)
• Type-safe transformations with minimal boilerplate
