About

Val is a simple, lightweight state management library for Roblox & Luau. Inspired by reactive programming, Val allows you to observe values so that you can automate processes for value changes.

Why Val?

  • Zero dependencies (source code is just a single file!)
  • Easy/simple API that minimizes verbosity
  • Focused on general-purpose state reactivity rather than UI exclusively

Features

You can go over these features in-depth in the documentation.

  • Computeds
  • Observers
  • Scopes
  • Batched updates
  • Memory management
  • Built-in arithmetic & string operations
  • Strict type-safety
  • (Near) full customization of states

I’ve been looking for something like this. Simple yet powerful.
