Who’s using bors?

This month’s featured user is option-t.js, a nullability library written in TypeScript. Using option-t allows you to:

• use monads to work your way past all sorts of optional values (values that might be undefined, values that might be null, or values that might occupy the library’s own None value)
• monad-ize exceptions
• monad-ize functions that return sentinels like -1

This library also compiles down to regular JavaScript, and has type definitions for other JS typecheckers like Flow and the Closure compiler.
