AB Standard Library
===================

[](#ab-standard-library)

The ab-std library is normalization of behavior in PHP. Goals include:

- High level access to string, array, and other types of value manipulation and validation.
- Normalization of exceptions, warnings, and other behavior.
- Improved cross-framework workflows and code bridges.

A roadmap will be added soon.

This is the primary `std\` namespace package and contains all simple utilitiy classes under the `std` namespace:

- `StrUtil`
- `ArrUtil`
- `FilterUtil`
- `NetUtil`
- `TimeIntervalUtil`

As of August 2019, this represents a tiny fraction of to-be-released code. Please stand by for further updates.

For an idea of what to come, please see [test-meta-framework](https://github.com/abcarroll/test-meta-framework).
