yap

Build it

yap is an app: nothing can depend on it. Clone it from the registry and build it with the cairn tool:

git clone https://cairn.registry.nexthub.sh/git/iamnbutler/yap.git
cd yap && git checkout v0.1.0 && cairn build --release

Depends on

cairn ^0.2.5
cairn_json ^0.1.0

Claims in 0.1.0

Every id this package has issued, as its claims.lock held them at this version. An id never moves or changes meaning: the registry refuses a version that drops, renumbers or redefines one. The claim pages show each claim by place, with what it does and its evidence.
