DataEcosystem - LeFreq/Singularity GitHub Wiki

A data ecosystem allows interfacing with all data objects. Since everything in the OS is an object (files, processes, network nodes), that means everything in the OS.

The ecosystem will have built-ins:

• help(object) -- peruse object documentation and hierarchy
• test(object) -- test object on your system (from doctests)
• directory(namespace) -- list objects in namespace
• run(object) -- turn object into an application
• %Object -- clone object
• ?Object -- query object
• #Object -- test alias
• 1/Object -- run object

Given the nature of the ecosystem, one of its tools will be a feed from other users in the network. Much like IRC or twitter, it's main purpose to hold the cohesion and data integrity of the system. So need to visualize a system of alerts from other users in the peer-network or other subscribed groups.
