🧠 Monadix

Monadix is a functional programming library for C# that brings type classes, higher-kinded types, and core functional abstractions like Functor, Applicative, Monad, and Foldable to the .NET ecosystem.

Inspired by Haskell and Scala, Monadix enables expressive, composable, and pure functional code — using advanced type patterns encoded in modern C#.

✨ Features

  • ✅ Emulated higher-kinded types (Kind<F, A>) in C#
  • ✅ Support for type classes: Functor, Applicative, Monad, Foldable, etc.
  • ✅ Write generic, type-safe, functional code
  • ✅ Designed for extensibility — define your own data types and instances
  • ✅ Leverages static polymorphism via interfaces and generic constraints

📦 Installation

🚧 Note: Monadix is a work-in-progress and currently intended for learning, experimentation, or advanced FP-in-C# projects.

## 🚀 First Release 🎉

This first release includes support for the following foundational abstractions:

### 🔧 Functional Type Classes
- [`Functor`](#functor) — map over structure
- [`Applicative`](#applicative) — lift and apply functions inside context
- [`Monad`](#monad) — chain operations with effects
- [`Traversable`](#traversable) — traverse and sequence effects

### 🔣 Algebraic Structures
- [`Magma`](#magma) — binary operation
- [`Semigroup`](#semigroup) — associative combination
- [`Monoid`](#monoid) — identity and associative combination

All abstractions use a **higher-kinded type encoding** (`Kind<F, A>`) to simulate parametric polymorphism over type constructors in C#.
