What problem does it solve?

East programs currently lack built-in access to Node.js platform APIs for I/O, cryptography, timing, and utilities. This Skill provides a bridge to these platform capabilities, enabling East code to perform common runtime tasks efficiently.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Console I/O: log, error, and write to stdout/stderr.
• FileSystem: read/write files, directories, and perform binary I/O, with support for exists/isFile/isDirectory.
• Fetch: HTTP requests for data retrieval.
• Crypto & Time: hashing, UUIDs, random bytes, and time-based operations.
• Path & Random: path manipulation and random distributions for simulations.
• Testing: describeEast and Assert helpers for tests in East projects.

Quick Start

Example: East.function([StringType], NullType, ($, path) => { const content = $.let(FileSystem.readFile(path)); $(Console.log(content)); });
