Frank – F# computation expressions

Frank offers computation expressions, or builders, for configuring the Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting.IWebHostBuilder and defining routes for HTTP resources using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Routing.

Computation expressions in F# provide a convenient syntax for writing computations that can be sequenced and combined using control flow constructs and bindings. Depending on the kind of computation expression, they can be thought of as a way to express monads, monoids, monad transformers, and applicative functors. However, unlike other languages (such as do-notation in Haskell), they are not tied to a single abstraction, and do not rely on macros or other forms of metaprogramming to accomplish a convenient and context-sensitive syntax.

Frank is free and open source software.
