How it works

The usage of a is pretty straightforward. Here are some examples:

I know that it's a little bit difficult to grasp at first, but with a little bit of effort, one gets used to it. You can try the actions without having to download the library:

a.contact() a.call()

Dependencies

Without those libraries, he a wouldn't work. Contrary to what is common, more and more dependencies are beeing added as time passes.
